I used a properly formatted “url” (it’s not actually a URL) for the server and 
got a response from the server, so I am communicating, but it’s generating an 
error even though the user name and password are correct (They are my 
credentials.) 

Also, considering that almost all servers are forcing the use of 2 factor or 
Multi-factor authentication these days, it’s probably just better to use the 
local mail client.
