Not sure this is very helpful, but have you seen https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com/forum/all/error-we-couldnt-connect-to-your-microsoft-account/6036fb8f-1b21-4254-b000-4dd7ec2b9f41 or, since live.com is provided by microsoft, have you searched for similar reports about outlook?

Use these settings: incoming POP outlook.office365.com, 995, SSL/TLS, OAuth2, email address; outgoing smtp.office365.com, 587, STARTTLS, OAuth2, email address. Same for IMAP, except incoming port 993.
