My email account will not add onto my macbook pro

When i go to add a user onto my Email App it goes through every process but as soon as i have to choose what apps to use with the email (Contacts, Notes, Mail, etc) i click done and nothing happens. The DONE button is no longer blue but absolutely nothing happens. It is my domain and it works absolutely fine for the other emails i have on that domain, i have also logged onto my ipad no problem. But my macbook pro will not allow me to add the account. I have restarted all apps and that doesn't work, i have tried to delete one account to see if it works but all it says is "This account is shared by other applications on this mac". But that should not stop me adding a new email on a domain that i own and other emails on that domain are working correctly.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.0

Verify you are running the current stable release of Monterey is 12.2

I am unclear what this means "add a user onto my Email App" ...(?)




See if there is anything here—go to "internet accounts" under >System Preferences...
