I have an imac running OSX 10.6.8 on which Mail for Mac 4.6 is installed. I use this app to access my.mac account - this being a MobileMe IMAP account. Since midday today I have been unable to access my inbox or send mail - I am repeatedly told my password is wrong. I have repeatedly reentered my password to no avail. I am able to access my account through iCloud (web based) using my usual password, so clearly I know the password and am not entering it wrongly in Mail. I have checked all the other IMAP and STMP settings - they are correct.
I am also able to access the account through my father's iPad - but have had to set up 2 factor authentication for this to happen. I am wondering if I need 2 factor to access from Mail - but cannot find any way of generating or entering such a password.
