Apologies if this has been covered. I did search.

After many years of free emails, GoDaddy just forced my emails over to MS 360. Agent reports my name & password are rejected because I have to change setting for MS Exchange. I don't know how to set up Agent to work with that.. There's something I've not set right on the Agent server settings, I figure.

This page did not help me resolve the issue.
https://www.godaddy.com/help/update-my-microsoft-365-account-to-exchange-in-other-clients-40518

Insult to injury, it's a "free trial" they'll want $$$ for later. Need new email server.

Any help appreciated

As I read that GoDaddy page, there are two parts to this:

1. You do not have to change settings for MS Exchange.
You can instead use the Microsoft 365 settings for POP to download
your email.

2. They do say you will have to change from username and password
to using OAuth 2.0

For #2, Agent's 'Login method' server setting do not have OAuth 2.0 as
an option. I suggest changing to Thunderbird to get OAuth 2.0.

For #1, the Microsoft 365 email settings are shown here:
<https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/pop-imap-and-smtp-settings-8361e398-8af4-4e97-b147-6c6c4ac95353>
If you apply these settings in Agent, be aware that Agent's terminology
is a little different to the standard.
* What Agent calls "TLS" is actually "STARTTLS"
* What Agent calls "SSL" or "secure" is actually SSL/TLS.
