Passwordless email accounts

Sat Jun 04, 2022 10:48 am

I recently changed my hotmail account to Passwordless and use my Microsoft authenticator App to login, but since the change I can no longer login to MailWasher.

How can I continue using MailWasher if it doesn’t prompt for App authentication?

I think I replied to your email via support, however no you cannot, MWPro uses POP / IMAP and these require a password sorry....

We do hope to support exchange in future, but no eta on this as yet.

The below from:

Does a passwordless account work with all apps and services?
No. Some older versions of Windows, apps, and services still need a password. Please continue to use a password if you use any of the following:

Xbox 360
Office 2010 or earlier
Office for Mac 2011 or earlier
Products and services which use IMAP and POP email services
