Unable to verify account name or password

I am having trouble creating an email account. New MacBook Air running Monterey 12.3. I have set up my 3 other emails without problems. The troublesome email is a go daddy account. I am positive the email name and password is correct as I can easily log on in web mail. I have tried everything including deleting and re-entering several times, advanced settings and ports, the enter password and "tab" approach to no avail. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

I am not familiar with GoDaddy email, but it might be that you need to generate an app-specific password for your Mac. Login to your email via the browser and looking for app-specific password generation.
