Hi, I have an ongoing problem with my hotmail account, which I believe is now under the auspices of Microsoft Live.
I have 3 iMacs shared side by side and keep getting at random times on either of them a warning “Mail Password Required, Enter password for “xxxxxxxx” in Internet Accounts” and the Internet Accounts box opening. I have Microsoft changed my password, gone to the [1]outlook.live.com page and opened up the hotmail/live mail there, so the password is good. I have then come back to System Preferences>Internet Accounts, selected the hotmail account and put the same password in the “Password” box and emails arrive as per normal. I have then sent a test email from my Mac Mail email to the hotmail and it arrived instantly. In the All Inboxes of the Mac Mail next to the hotmail account there is a 1 showing that one new email has arrived, there in no tilde indicating that hotmail is offline. Then the warning pops up again! Is there a way to resolve this? Or do I just live with it seeing as the emails are still getting through? Any suggestions welcome.
