Office 365 Recommended settings

Office 365 Recommended settings

Below are the recommended settings of Office365 configured in  application.

Incoming:

Server name : outlook.office365.com
User name: <your user name>
Password: <password>
Email:  <Give the required email address>
Protocol: IMAPS
TLS: No
Port:993

This works most cases, if not, check connectivity (ping <servername> and port availability <telnet <servername> 993).

In some cases, though credentials are fine, it says authentication error, such case change user account and check, that works.


Outgoing:

Server name : smtp.office365.com
Reply to Email Address : <Give the required email address>
Protocol : SMTP 
Port: 587
TLS Enabled : Yes
Authentication Required : yes

Make sure, you restart the application service after making these changes.
