I was getting “Authentication Failure” notifications for my Outlook account so I attempted to remove it & re-add it since the “incoming server” settings were failing every time now. I can’t even access it now with K-9 or Thunderbird since they’re practically the same app with two different names. I really like K-9, but I guess it’s time to find something else that supports Outlook.
(Update) Working again after I was giving another app a try. Don’t know what was going on, but it seems that Microsoft might have been doing maintenance.
Massive surge in reports of auth failures:

Certainly not K-9’s fault. Just classic Microsoft, having things randomly faceplant for no discernable reason.

Yeah kinda figured that out when I saw it was working again. Getting pretty sick & tired of tech companies messing with things because they are under the delusion that they’re “improving” something when there’s no real need for it.

Seconded. This appears all across the board, with the exception of Outlook desktop clients apparently. The same occurred with (as recent as 20 minutes ago) with Samsung’s email client and my Exchangeonline account.
