I have QB 2017 on my laptop with Windows 10. I am trying to set up to send my invoices by email. I have tried multiple times to put in my password and it says, " incorrect password". I have double and quadruple checked my password, and it still does not let me through. I have made sure Java was installed. Still nothing. I don't use this laptop very much but was wanting to verify that I could send email from it since my 2009 on my desktop, windows Vista Home Premium does not work. Can anyone help me?

I get the message, " Your email cannot be sent because Quickbooks does not support the email program you are using. The supported programs are Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail and Mozilla Thunderbird."
I have Windows Mail. Now what ?
Sorry to bother you on Sunday, Mother's Day. I won't expect a reply til tomorrow maybe. I had to send it while I'm thinking about it and have time.
Thanks
