What’s IMAP, and is it better than having a 365 account?

i  would remove the exchange account setup and use the above with your sign
in credentials

Subject: Outlook.com account question

Hi all,
I noticed that my Outlook.com account is an Exchange account, and no I
didn't set it up to be one that's just how it got created. I'm wondering if
the undeliverable email issues that I'm having could be caused by this..
Does anyone know if it's possible for me to change it to an IMAP account?
Using latest versions of Jaws and Windows 10. Thanks Madison
