Hi. Like the Question states, I tried deleting all stored passwords, then adding the hotmail account with the problem; the other two accounts (gmail and another hotmail address) work fine. I was wondering if after looking at the attached screenshot an error could be found, or if I need to choose another email program? I am using Linux Ubuntu Mate 16.04. I have TB version: 45.4.0. Thanks, 

  Anthony
