[QUOTE="Victor M, post: 1054009, member: 96560"] Be aware that the phone app on your phone does not require 2FA. If may ask for 2FA on registration, but won't ask for it again. So if your phone is hacked, the attacker will gain access to your mail. The best thing to do is not use the mail app of your phone. Instead, surf to the web email address, like outlook.com or gmail.com. When you access your mail thru the web mail site, it will always ask for 2FA, unless you deliberately disable that feature. And go buy a Yubikey, it is a small tab like device, you just press it against your phone when it asks for it. And you can keep it on your key holder. You can take a look at it at yubico.com .
