Microsoft account (Exchange, Hotmail, Outlook, Live etc.) password requests

Since upgrading to 9.2.2157 (5b49542) I get a password prompt for hotmail.com, live.com and outlook.com, but can’t connect these accounts. Before the upgrade everything worked perfectly. The mail accounts are set up as EWS (server: https://outlook.office365.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx). How can I receive my e-mails again? Thank you in advance.

I opened this feature request, please vote on it and perhaps we can get microsoft to enable this behaviour for us.
