Colin2000 If you're having an issue on your iphone and ipad, it's not related to the issue discussed in this thread. As long as you're running on iOS 11 or later/iPadOS 13.1 or later modern authentication should work with the apple mail app. You could also try downloading the Microsoft Outlook app in case there's some conditional access setting not allowing the apple mail app to work. If none of that helps, I recommend reaching out to your IT staff or opening a case with Microsoft.
