Windows 10 new machine. I have TB with Imap on 4 other computers with the same account. Checked the password through webmail. It's the good one. deleted the account and tried again. Looked through the internet. Don't know what to do. We had problems with certificate before but it's not the same message.

I pushed the button Solved by mistake. I checked the settings and nothing needed to be changed.

Still no emails

I finally made it work. Weirdly enough it was only the account name that was different in SMTP settings. not the login.
