I’ve set up two accounts in eM Client, both are Office 365 using the auto setup. I also have 4 other accounts connected to eM Client. Only the two that are Office365 have this issue of randomly asking for user name and password.
Entering the correct user name and password and clicking OK doesn’t stick. It keeps asking until I click cancel.
Even when clicking cancel the app continues to send and receive email just fine. So there isn’t an issue with the user name and password.
I’ve deleted the accounts and set up again. No go. Same problem.
I’ve deleted eM Client and reinstalled multiple times. No go. Same problem. Keeps asking for the user name and password.
This is so frustrating. I find eM Client to be quite buggy in general (have had weird problems primarily with syncing on both my Mac and PC) but this is the most irritating of all the bugs.
Anyway ideas on how to address?
Thank you for your report.

With all due respect, this is kind of rubbish for an answer. Solving this kind of problem should NOT be restricted to pro users. I have two Office 365 email addresses that I’ve merged together under em client. BUT, em client constantly asks for my usr name and password for each of them, despite periodically doing an effective sync. The answer to this is fundamental and should be considered FAQ, e.g. available to all usrs.
I downloaded EMClient for the first time to test out today and nearly deleted it about half an hour later after continual password prompts for my O365 accounts (GSuite’s fine).
Was a bit disappointed to see the lack of any actual answers from the team here - as I’m not going to spend cash on a piece of software for basic support when, to all intents & purposes it didn’t work.
Yes, there were some issues recently which was caused by a change that Microsoft made on the Office 365 servers. There was an announcement on this forum, and a fix followed immediately.
Couldn’t see any announcements - searched but didn’t find anything except people being told to contact support. Either way, the beta seems to work a treat
I had this problem with my outlook client too since a week or so. I don’t think it has anything to do with EMclient. In fact, that’s why I’m testing EMclient now, to get rid of O365 accounts and Outlook.
