    I think the best bet is to open a ticket with Microsoft and they should be able to diagnose better.

    Hope that helps!

    I checked if the user can access to the mailbox and he can(I used his user account to test and enable the mailbox) I checked if he has the signatures and I deleted it, and I started the outlook  as administrator; anyway it doesn't work; thanks in advance for your time and support

    Hi,

    Can you try the other 2 options?? Can you check if Signature is the issue?

    Also, try restarting Outlook with Run as Administrator.

    Oh!! That's the reason

    Thanks for letting us all know.

    Add-ons tend to interfere with each other.

    Hi,

    There are more than 1 definitive reasons for this behavior. Here are some key items - 

    1. Make sure you have access to you Mailbox (Mailbox permissions in Dynamics)

    2. Any other add-ons in Outlook might be an issue.

    3. Try removing the Signature from Outlook and try again.

    Restart Outlook and try again.

    Hope this helps.

    It works only if I go to –> Account Settings –> Email Section –> Then I click on Change –> remove the “Use Cached Exchange Mode” Flag –> then I click Ok and I restart the Outlook
