Unable to set up bellsouth.net email on my new MacBook Air

Hi, I am trying to install my bellsouth.net email on my new MacBook Air using Monterey version 12.5.1.

Nothing seems to work!

Try adding the account while bootsed into Safe Mode according to How to use safe mode on your Mac and to see if you can. Then reboot normally.


NOTE: Safe Mode boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following; 

• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed

• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)

• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically

• Disables user-installed fonts 

• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files
