Duo - Reconnect Apple Mail app after 2FA enrollment

Description

If a UCO email account was added to the Apple Mail app on iPhone or iPad before Duo 2FA enrollment, it is likely that the app will prompt for the UCO password after Duo enrollment and will continue prompting even when the correct password is entered. To resolve this Apple Mail issue, it is necessary to remove the UCO account from Apple Mail and then add it back. This configures Apple Mail to use the newer and more secure "Modern Auth", a requirement for UCO email authentication once Duo is added to an account.
