I've just changed my password on my main email account (Outlook.com), which is also the account for my Microsoft account.

Moto G v3, Android M (I think).

I have a few email accounts on my phone, including this one and the gmail account I had to set up as "entry" to Google account. I use Gmail as the client.

I can't access this account on my phone, it keeps telling me username or password is wrong. Fine, it even offers me a link to "edit details".

The trouble is, following that link I can't see anywhere to actually change my password.

I've tried googling, but every hit relates to the password for the Gmail account itself.

I remember I had the same problem on my old phone, when I used K9 as a mail client.

In the end I deleted the account and added it again. Is this the only solution, or am I missing something simple?

Nobody else had this problem, I take it?

Or can anyone suggest a decent email client for Android?

Have you tried logging into your gmail account from a browser?

[jsmith99]

I have, but all I see is the Gmail mail account; that one's not the problem.

I'm using Gmail as a mail client with some non-Gmail accounts. I've changed the password on one of them, but I can't see any way to change the password with the mail client.

If I search, all I get are ways to change the password of the Gmail mail account,

Can you delete the account from gmail and re-add it?

I can, that's what I did with K9, but I look on it as a last resort.
