Can't receive or send e-mails

more options

Since Thursday last week, I've not been able to receive or send e-mails.

I constantly receive the error asking for my password. It's the same for my hotmail account and my two gmail accounts.

Please help.

The error indicates the authentication method on the account is 'normal password'. It must be OAuth2 for gmail and hotmail accounts, for the incoming and outgoing.
