Change, update, or request a new email account password
You can change, update, or request the passwords for your respective accounts at the following locations:
-

-
Exchange: You'll need to contact your IT Admin

IMAP: Your IMAP provider may have a link on their page or you may need to contact your IMAP provider.
Set up an IMAP account
Within the app:
-
Tap not a ___ account then tap the IMAP icon on the account setup page. Enter your password and sign in.
-
If the connection fails, try again and tap Show Advanced Settings.
-
Enter your incoming and outgoing hostnames, usernames, and passwords. If you are not sure of this information you can get it from your IMAP service provider.
-
To enter additional port information please add a colon and the port number after your hostname, e.g. imap.server.com:993.
Important: If you're setting up a corporate email account and/or using an Authenticator or Company Portal app on the device, please contact your IT/server administrator.
Also, please check if your email provider has enforced valid SSL certificates on the servers. If the servers do not have a valid SSL certificate, we won't be able to configure your email with the Outlook app.
If you are still having issues, we will need to gather more information to help troubleshoot your situation. Please contact in-app support via Settings > Help & feedback > Send feedback.
