How to enter Username of IMAP Account in Outlook 2016
I want to add a new email account to Outlook 2016. I cannot find any input field where I can add a username. Obviously Outlook takes the email address as username - but this is not accepted by my hosting provider.
This is the dialogue for adding an IMAP account:
As you see, there is no field to add a username. The next page asks for password - but there's also no username input possible.

Ok. What happens if you click “not you?” At the top? Also, you can proceed to complete the installation of the account and then edit the settings afterwards.

Unfortunately, the wizard does not allow to complete the setup before the account has been checked successfully. "Not you" brings me back to the beginning of the setup.
