Add user with no Microsoft account to VSTS organisation

I've created a new organization in VSTS and I've created a new project with git repository. I've invited a new user- myself but with a different email, no Microsoft email e.g. [email protected]. By Microsoft email, I mean @hotmail.com or @outlook.com. I received an invitation an when I tried to enter the organization I received an HTTP 401 response:

401 Not Authorized

The VSTS organization you are trying to access only allows Microsoft Accounts. 
Please create a Microsoft Account with a different email 
address and ask your administrator to invite the new Microsoft Account.

At work, I use my companies email to log into the VSTS. The question is what should I do to add a new user with an email address different than @outlook.com or "hotmail.com to the VSTS repository and be able to see and manage the content?

If your VSTS Account is not backed by Azure AD, you must use Microsoft Account to sign in. If you want to use work account to sign in, connect your VSTS Account to AAD.
