email issues again

Two of my three email accounts (MS Outlook & ProtonMail) are having issues, but only on my iMac's mail application. They are sending/receiving emails without issues on my iphone and ipad once I log in, but not on my computer using my apple email app-my passwords for both are not being recognized. However, I can log on to both email accounts in Safari (on my iMac), no issues-both passwords work.


Is my only alternative deleting both email accounts in Mail, then re-loading them all over again?

iMac Line (2012 and Later)
