I'm trying to link my company outlook account onto my personal laptop because sometimes I work from home. I went into file -> info -> account settings -> change on my company computer, but didn't find any info on incoming/outgoing mail server. All I see are:
- Server (with a checkbox for "cached exchanged mode")
- User name for account
When I try to add a new exchange account on my home computer, it forces me enter "incoming" and "outgoing server", when I choose IMAP. Where do I find this info? I had no problem adding the exchange account onto my phone, the only field I had to enter on my phone was "server" and "domain".
Thanks.
You're work connection is using an Exchange connection. IMAP may not even be enabled or allowed form the outside, etc. You should discuss with your email server admin about gaining access to it from the outside, they'll be able to provide you the information you need. – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2016-04-14T13:29:37.163
As @Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 mentions, using exchange requires (usually) different connection values. Speak to tech support about it. – Raystafarian – 2016-04-14T13:35:29.677
What client are you using for personal use? If it is also Microsoft Outlook, you can likely just configure it using the webmail address. Ask your techsupport what the webmail address is. It'll be something like: https://remote.company.com/owa of course you can also use your webbrowser and use webmail.
