- You have a valid email account with a provider that supports IMAP or POP3 (e.g., Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo).
Step 1: Configure Wayland
To enable Wayland, you'll need to set the WAYLAND_DISPLAY

Step 4: Configure Email Account
In the Outlook setup wizard, enter your email account credentials and select the IMAP or POP3 protocol. You may need to adjust the server settings to match your email provider's requirements.

Once you've configured your email account, test the connection by sending and receiving emails.
Additional Tips:
- If you're using the web app version of Outlook, you may need to enable Wayland support in your browser settings.
