Adding an account in Outlook (2019 in my case) one must provide an email 
adddress. Example: elise at cloudzeeland.nl So that would be the username 
(and not simply elise). Dovecot does not understand that and respose 
with a 'non existing user' kinda of message.

Do agree that MS should be less arragand on this; perhaps a member of MS 
reads this topic and is willing to help me/us out with this. Imho not 
only should a webbrowser be cross compatible; a mailclient also should 
respect global IMAP rules' configuration.
