In this case are you saying that there is a password prompt for the users credentials? Clear the Windows Credential manager or recreate the users Outlook profile. In fact if you just turned on MFA and you were not using MFA before you usually end up having to rebuild the profile and clearing the credential manager. If you are saying that they are getting multiple MFA prompts then this is an out of sync issue with the wrong code being used.

Outlook stuck in an MFA loop
The send/receive error 0x800CCC0E fix user had Office 2015 and Office 2016 credentials and Teams credentials that we deleted. We checked with Word that the account was connected–it was and the we opened Outlook and it immediately connected. We too have been seeing this more and more, all W10 on O365, although we use Okta as our MFA. Have looked all over and people have all sorts of possible solutions, but nothing we found to resolve the issue and get a new issue daily and just keep going through until it eventually works.
