Microsoft Edge and Two Step Verification

Anonymous

I am trying to transfer all my stuff from Internet Explorer to Microsoft Edge.  Where do my emails appear?  Where does my Favorites List appear?  Secondly, I want to set up Two Step Verification when I sign in.  I use one email address and one phone number (iPhone).  Setting up Two Step Verification with other websites was very, very easy.  When I write that I want the code sent to my phone and I write in my number, I get the message that they already have that number and I'm supposed to put in something else.  I just want the code to go to my one phone number as soon as I put in my password and then a space appears where I type in the code. This frustration is causing my brain to grow cobwebs and I am losing patience.

I have another problem:  I was instructed per email to go to Change mailbox synch settings, then go to Advanced mailbox settings and then check boxes for require SSL for incoming email and require SSL for outgoing email.  Sounds like an easy process.  Doesn't work. I finally was able to pull up Advanced mailbox settings and that was as far as it went.

    Thank you for sending the MS Edge phone number.  I will call them and tell them my troubles and see if they can help me fix my problems.

    Sorry to be warning you a couple of hours later, but the post you replied to was spam and was deleted. That number is not a legitimate phone number. It will connect you to scammers.
