You must use an app-specific password instead of your usual password.

You can get one here: https://account.apple.com/

Dear Rick, Thank you very much for your help! The link you sent me did the trick. It took me a while to figure out how to navigate my new phone to get the App specific password, but I learned a lot doing it and set up my new account. I was then able to designate it as my default and move it, my old email, and my local folders around so they are in a usable order. You are an IT GEM!!! Thanks again!! Best Regards, Tony Berka
