How can I add an Exchange Account to Outlook (new)?
I want to add an owa exchange account to the new Outlook. But I cannot find an option to do so.
Hi Ahmed, thanks for reaching out.
Am sorry for the late reply on this thread, I have been investigating and testing on my end. I found that, currently, POP and on-premises Exchange accounts aren’t supported, Currently, the New Outlook only supports Microsoft 365 work and school accounts (Exchange Online), Outlook.com / Hotmail as Exchange mailbox providers and other third-party accounts connecting through IMAP. Support for On-Premises Exchange or other hosted Exchange services will be added later, see Accounts in the new Outlook for Windows – Deploy Office | Microsoft Learn, Getting started with the new Outlook for Windows – Microsoft Support. When attempting to add an account that isn’t supported, an error message is displayed: We couldn’t reach the email server. Please try again. Refer to the new Outlook for Windows for organization admins – Microsoft Community Hub.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask, we’re here to help you further if needed.
Your VAF Team.
