Go into the account under settings and then into the more advanced setting exchange server settings and change the password there.

Or

Click on the sign in failed and enter new password in the screen it brings up.

Remove account and add it again?

Thanks guys, will try everything. Have not changed any password so am confused. Deleted and re-added account , no luck.

Tried everything here. Re adding shows authentication failed ?

Could be the email server host has changed security settings. Try setting...
SMTP Port: 465 (incoming mail server)
POP3 Port: 995 or IMAP Port: 993 (outgoing mail server)
Security type: SSL
Authentication is required for IMAP, POP3, and SMTP.

Old Goat....thought you were a child of mine calling me names again !!
Thanks guys for all your help. Just been on the phone to Mweb who steered me through a complete new sign up with new details and all is working fine again.
Happy festive season to all and stay safe out there !!!
