IMAP Email Connection To Microsoft Office 365

I am currently using EPIM Pro Portable v.8.6.1; trying to setup my mail module for IMAP access to Microsoft Office 365. My Office 365 settings work fine with my Outlook desktop. However, there appears to be something amiss when I try to configure access via EPIM.

The steps I have taken so far are as follows:

1. EPIM: File > New > Mail Account.... The "Account Wizard" pop-up window appears.

2. On the "Identity" page of the Account Wizard pop-up, I enter my name and my pre-existing Office 365 email address; then I click "Next" to go on to the "Incoming Mail Server" page.

3. On the Incoming Mail Server page, I click "Next" to accept "IMAP4 (OAuth authentication)" as my "Server type."

The next window is where my problem appears. (Note that my Office 365 email is redacted in the image below for privacy reasons.)

The question is, why does Microsoft say my account doesn't exist? It appears there's something amiss when attempting to connect to Office 365 via EPIM. Again, I am using a perfectly good Office 365 email address that works fine with my Outlook desktop. Any ideas?

Surely Related: a Search produced THIS under a Downdetector's link:

We recently experienced issues with Microsoft's authentication procedure, which was restricting Office365 users from logging into Karbon. The issue has been resolved, but if you're still having issues you can do the following: Dec. 12, 2019, 2:25 p.m

I thought I saw some Office 365 world-wide "Down" areas even on the 13th ( https://downdetector.com ) BUT IS Account creation STILL blocked Now ?

Just to let you know - the issue was fixed in the latest 8.65 version of EPIM. Please update, if you haven't done so, yet.
