I am trying to log-in to my
IMAP
Outlook.office365.com
993 TLS
mail account on MailWasher using an App Password
I have followed the instructions below, however, with the App Password generated, I still get a message
Failed to connect to server.
How do I solve this and connect to IMAP?
Many thanks

2. At the top of the page, choose App Passwords.
3. Choose create to get an app password.

I have the exact same problem. After the upgrade I can not retrieve my office 365 account. Also not with the OAuth option. App passwords are genereated but after entering them the connection to the server always fails.

I already had tried that. It was even the first thing I did. Only after failing I tried the app password route. But whatever I enter there it still gives me the error that it can not connect to the server.

You should then be prompted to logon to the account via a web popup and give MailWasher access to the account.

When using the main password in MailWasher go Settings >> Accounts >> Incoming >> Advanced >> set the Secure Connection type to OAUTH >> Save.
