How to add Outlook to Apple Mail Monterey,

Hi since yesterday I use Outlook with 2-step verification.


When setting up an Outlook account in Apple Mail Monterey, it does not allow you to enter a security code. The only solution is to set up an Exchange account. Is there any fix for this as in both on iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 you can ad an Outlook mail account with 2-step verification.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.4

PS I thought the iCloud specific password would work but it did not.
