Hi @apone2000 

Thanks for coming to the community.

If you have tried to reset the password, I would recommend getting in touch with our email tech guides so they can help to get this working for you.

You can see how to reach the team on our Contact Us page.

Hi,

yeah I spoke to somone on the phone, did a password reset and the error of 2009 wasn’t listed so got passed to another team.

unfortunately it’s my main email account so anything that needs an email pin to log into I can’t use. 

when I connect via imap I get an access denied message, which is different to an incorrect password message if I put the wrong password in, so looks like some back end email server problem that didn’t get reset properly after the account got flagged for potential compromise.

Thanks for the update @apone2000 

When you were passed on to another team, what did they say?

All sorted today, it seems it got stuck in the support teams as when I chased they thought it was fixed. Got put through to the email team and a lovely lady checked a bunch of stuff. 

apparently on one of the backends somewhere it was showing my account was suspended, event though all the other tools showed active! When she logged into this tool she spotted and fixed immediately!
