Trying to set up email with new computer. Clicked on Outlook icon, got "searching for accounts" message, and then correct email address shows in field. Clicked on "Connect". Microsoft sign-in page displayed with correct email on line. Clicked on "Next". Then I get the message: "This username may be incorrect. Make sure you typed it correctly...."

Which email provider would it be, Microsoft(Outlook.com or Hotmail.com) even?
