Can’t access an Msn email account

My iPhone is no longer allowing emails to be received or sent from one of my Msn email accounts. I get an error message saying that IMAP doesn’t support password authentication. Yet, I have another Msn email account that I can successfully access on my iPhone. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the other Msn account with no success. What can i do?

iPhone 11, iOS 15

Contact MSN or look at their support site, you probably need to use an app specific password, but they can let you know for sure when you contact them.
