More secure
HU uses Microsoft 365 for email traffic. Microsoft is going to make a security adjustment. This will put an end to the support of logging with ‘Basic Authentication’ (that is, transmission of the username and password combination) . Due to this security adjustment, Mail apps will no longer be able to receive mail after this security adjustment. For some smartphones, it may mean that you have remove your account and login again with your account in order receice email.
Our advice for your private device (smartphone and laptop)
Use the Microsoft Outlook app for your mail. This app fits best with the HU email. If you do not yet use this app and do not install it on time, there is a very good chance that you will no longer receive HU mails on your current mail app. Don’t want to use an app? Then use Outlook via the browser on your smartphone.
