1. Use the settings at 
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/pop-imap-and-smtp-settings-for-outlook-com-d088b986-291d-42b8-9564-9c414e2aa040

2. Use Microsoft's security facility to create an application-specific 
password.

3. Attempt to send a message in MM using the Microsoft account. It will 
fail with a verbose and obscure error message.

4. Check your Inbox. There should be a new message with the subject 
"Please sign in to your Outlook.com account" (or maybe the rough 
equivalent in French?) with a link to a verification page. Follow the 
instructions.

5. Try again to send the message from (3) above. It should now go 
through.
