I have an MS email account which is passwordless and only uses fingerprint/passkey authentication.

How do I get TB to use this security method to gain access to my email? Currently, every time I try to add the email address/account, it asks for a password, which obviously I don't have.

Please excuse misspellings and anything that may not make sense or cause offence as the medication I take can have an adverse effect on my mind.

Oh. That's a bummer.

I guess I'll need to do what I've done with other accounts and that is create a password, log in and allow access to my account and then enable passwordless. All this seems to work, at least it has on all my other accounts.

Wužytny?
