I just found this thread here: answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com/forum/all/are-app-passwords-being-discontinued/0030efe5-87fa-48d5-b14c-16f355ebb5faInterestingly, it is stated that outgoing e-mails will still work even with outlook. It's the incoming e-mails that will no longer work with app passwords. And as I said above, you could simply forward your outlook e-mails to another e-mail address and therefore still receive them in OE and sending e-mails should still work with app passwords. But yes, eventually all app passwords will cease to work. But as of now there is no indication that this will happen very soon. I've actually been having issues with OE6 connecting and polling and receiving my Outlook mail for the last couple of weeks already. I looked it up and that is normal. 'Until September 16th, users signing into Outlook.com through Basic Authentication may experience recurring password prompts in Outlook and other third-party email applications. This is a known issue. After September 16th, users attempting to connect their Microsoft accounts through Basic Authentication will fail to do so.' |

Yes, but that's what it says in this thread too.
Incoming mails will no longer work but you should still be able to send mails.
And by forwarding your outlook e-mails to another e-mail address (which you have an account for in OE) you should still be able to receive them.
