Well that kind of sucks. Updated my outlook 365 on my mac which has a new look but you have to revert to the old look as it will not support pop or imap any more. Use it for my spark account as well as a few others, Just the spark one is no longer compatible bummer.

Microsoft is moving towards killing of legacy/basic authentication like POP/IMAP in general so not surprising.

Jogre:

Are you sure , got a link. (Yes for 365's email , but for outlook client in general ?)
Somehow I very much doubt it, for the Outlook client .

Imap still works on Office 365 or did this afternoon when I setup Gmail on a PC using Outlook 365

With Outlook 2019 on my laptop, for some reason it won't allow for the old Activesync connections any more.

JaseNZ: will not support pop or imap any more

Meaning it's 365/Live/Outlook only?

Its if you select the new look the spark account is no longer seen or available.

Latest version of office 365 with outlook.

I this an Insider or Beta version, or a Beta update ?

Anyway, heres what I found
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/serious-bug-in-outlook-for-mac-1639-20006100-beta/f89f1ff1-434a-45a0-84b9-d5175a7981d8

"We recently released and update where only certain types of accounts would be supported in the New Outlook for Mac due to certain limitations. We do plan to add support for other account types in the future, but we don't have an ETA to share yet."
"the only way, for now, to use these unsupported accounts, is to go back to the Old Outlook for Mac. "

Gotta love it when theres no official announcement from MS, have search forums instead :-(
Hopefully its just a Outlook for Mac issue
If Office Updates kill off imap/pop in Win Outlook , the crap will hit the fan .
