Hi there KME

 

Can you go to http://login.microsoftonline.com

from there can you login with your full username and password.  If this works then we know your password works.

 

From there its a case of checking the settings
The old settings will still work but i would advise you to use these as they have been future proofed

 

Incoming server

Server – outlook.office365.com

port – 995

connection type – ssl

ensure that this is authorised with the full email address and password including the domain i.e.@btconnect.com

 

Outgoing

Server - smtp.office365.com

port – 587

connection type – tls

make sure the outgoing server requires authentication and authenticate with the same details as the incoming server

 

Let me know how you get on
