Issue
Email profile in Classic Outlook lost connection to the email server. Other methods of accessing email from that account (e.g., New Outlook, OWA) work fine, but removing and re-adding the account in Classic Outlook does not fix this.
Environment
UO-managed Windows desktop
Description
My Outlook profile/account has been disconnected from the server since Thursday 12/12. I am able to access my email/account via the "New Outlook" but would prefer to continue to use the old version. I've done as much troubleshooting as I can and need assistance with getting my account "back online"
Resolution
Creating a new profile can fix more persistent email connectivity issues:
- Select the Windows icon, type Control Panel in the search box and select it.
- In Control Panel, search Mail, and select it.
- The Mail icon won't appear unless you have Outlook installed and have run the program at least once. The Mail Setup dialog box opens.
- Click Show Profiles.
- Click Add.
- Type a name for the profile, and then click OK.
- Add an email account to use in your profile by following the directions on your screen.
