Ridding of McAfee Notifications:

A. Use MalwareBytes for Mac

This is software that searches for malware/adware. So, scan with it and then remove what is found. Once removed, uninstall MalwareBytes for Mac. Then restart the Mac. This software has been created by Long Time Users of these Forums. So, that makes it reliable for Macs.

Downloads:

1. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac
2. Malwarebytes uninstaller

B. Single-Out this User:

Try an Admin new user, see if you can add the eMail account t to it. If so, then it is an issue with the configuration of the current user. If not, then it is an issue with the entire Mac.

Uninstall McAfee from your Mac.
