Hi!

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

The New Outlook (Windows) does notfully support third-party SMTP providers like GoDaddy for sending. Receiving works because but sending fails.

This is the only reliable Outlook solution with GoDaddy.

1. Log in to GoDaddy
2. Go to Email → Account Settings → Security
3. Generate an App Password
4. In Classic Outlook:
   1. Remove the account completely
   2. Add it again manually
   3. Use the App Password, not your normal password
5. Disable modern auth fallback:
   1. Outlook → File → Account Settings → Change
   2. Ensure IMAP/SMTP only, no OAuth prompts

If set correctly this should stop the password loop.

Note: There is nothing wrong with your setups this is a limitation between New Outlook and GoDaddy SMTP and there is no know user side permanent fix.
