    I received an email today that older email apps might not be able to receive emails and that I should update my Outlook 2013.

    Microsoft stated modern authentication is not included in Outlook 2013. So my question is, will I still be able to get my msn.com and outlook.com emails using Outlook 2013 after September 2024?

    I am planning to buy Office 2024 LTSC when it comes out. The link in the mail takes you to a site to buy Microsoft 365 which I do not want.

      Only if you create a new profile (not POP/IMAP):

      Option 1: Get a newer Outlook email app which supports Modern Authentication

      If your Outlook client does not support Modern Authentication, you will need to upgrade to the latest version and then setup using Outlook.com Sync. You can either purchase a new Outlook License, use the Outlook that is included in your Microsoft 365 subscription, or download Outlook for Windows for free. 

      Option 2: Switch to Outlook.com/Exchange Syncing

      Instead of using POP/IMAP and SMTP, create a new Outlook Desktop profile and then add your Outlook.com account using automatic account configuration, which will add the account with Modern Authentication. To do this, please use the following guidance:
