Outlook is not connecting to the server? Fix it now!

Examine connection to server

• If Outlook cannot connect to the server, you need to check if the account credentials and exchange server name are correct.
• Also, you need to make sure Outlook is online. To do this, open Outlook, go to the Send / Receive tab, and reconnect the "Work Offline" option.
• If your computer is not connected to the network, you will definitely receive the error "Outlook is not connecting to the server." Therefore, try checking your network connection. Connect another computer or laptop to the same network and check the Internet connection. Better yet, try opening Outlook on a different device and see if the “Outlook cannot connect to server” error occurs. If you are unable to connect another device, log into your browser, try going to any website.
• Also, check the connection to the Microsoft Exchange Server. To do this, open Outlook. Then go to the File tab, select Information, then click on Account and Social Settings and open the Account Settings tab. Notice the indicator next to the Exchange account. If it doesn't work, fix the connection to Microsoft Exchange Server. Then restart Outlook and check if the error is fixed.
• Try using SSL to connect to Microsoft Exchange Server. In the Outlook app, go to File, go to Information, open Account and Social Settings. In Account Settings, select your email account, click Change, then click Advanced Settings. On the Advanced tab, go to the Outgoing Mail Server section and select SSL as the encrypted connection. Save your changes and check if the bug causing Outlook to be unable to connect to the server has been fixed.
• Try setting up a connection to a proxy server: open Outlook, then go to File, then click on Information-> Account and Social Network Settings-> Account Settings. Open your email account and click Change, then click Advanced Settings and select Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP. In the Exchange Proxy Settings section, specify the proxy server, enter the URL to connect to the proxy server. Then select the following options: Connect using SSL only, connect only to proxy servers that have this primary name in their certificate. After that enter msstd: URL, select Basic Authentication under Proxy Authentication Settings. Then restart Outlook and check if the error that causes Outlook to be unable to connect to the server is resolved.
