I was using Outlook 2016, but I uninstall it and went back to Outlook 2010. I just can’t stand where MicroThief is taking their software to.
MS has instituted a new Authentication Code security...whether you like it or not.
It fixed mine about a week ago.
Apple “Mail” works well for me. At least as secure as Outlook, I’m sure.
protonmail
I’m running thunderbird on mac.
Use Mail instead.
Not likely to be the Outlook program itself but rather a configuration issue with your email provider. I would check with them to see if they instituted a protocol change.
I can receive mail with outlook, but can’t send. It is very frustrating having to use Frontier Yahoo.
My Outlook 2016 stopped working about 1.5 weeks ago. Since you also have an AT&T type email I am pretty sure it is the change AT&T made to go with a secure mail key instead of a password.
Go to MyATT
- Manage profile
- Manage secure mail key
Allow website to generate your key and then paste it in password field of Outlook. At least this is what fixed my problem.
AT&T had sent our an email about going to this secure mail key quite a while back and I guess they finally made it mandatory.
Good luck.
I have some outlook email addresses(for win 10 installs) that I have in Thunderbird
Spark works well across many devices.
Outlook will stop sending if your profile is corrupted. Deleting and recreating the profile usually solves the problem. This had always worked on Windoze machines, I’ve never tried it on a Apple/Mac.
I like my Earthlink. You can get their email capability without having to have their internet service. If you pay in 1 payment, it’s $40/year. The Xfinity email program is far beyond stupid AND frustrating, absolutely a disaster.
Buy some stamps. Write in cursive for security.
Outlook.com is working fine for me.
Why would you use Outlook when MacOS has a good and secure mail client built in to it?
Our home Outlook has stopped sending email. Using a Mac. Suggestions on a new and secure email program, anybody? email is xxx@sbcglobal.net if it matters.

If you’re on a Mac, you can use the built-in Mac Mail.app. It can handle multiple accounts simultaneously including MS Echange/Outlook email. Go to Preferences, Select Internet Accounts, then click on the account you wish to add like Gmail, Echange, etc.
I use Mozilla Thunderbird which has their issues too but at least I can recover the emails in a crash. Any time I’ve used Outlook and the OS crashed, I could never recover the emails on my hard drive.
“Spazzing out.”
Is that a technical term?
Have only used Macs, and I’ve always used the Apple mail program.
