Good news @Goran WitchDoc, now it works š
I had tried using Microsoft Outlook pop3 setting but was the same issue, I got into a support call with Microsoft support engineer and figured out that Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) configured on my free email MS Outlook account is the reason which causes the authentication issue for POP3 connection, there are two options here, either to disable the MFA on my Outlook account (which is not recommended) or using what is called "App password" which is a password specifically by other applications for authentication, I used this App password and things worked fine. similar I did with my Gmail account, I got its app password and worked fine.
Below are links for how to het app password for both Gmail and MS Outlook:
- Gmail app password: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en
- MS Outlook app password: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-billing/using-app-passwords-with-apps-that-don-t-support...
