Outlook 2011 for Mac users must click send/receive to get new mail from exchange 2013 server

I recently switched our primary CAS servers over from a single exchange 2010 cas/mailbox/hub server to a couple new exchange 2013 CAS/Mailbox servers.  Exchange 2013 has cu3, and is hosted on windows server 2012.  Anyone who has their mailbox hosted
on one of these exchange 2013 servers has an issue where they must click the send/receive button to get new messages downloaded to their client. This is only the case for outlook 2011 for mac client.  Activesync clients, mac mail, OWA, and Outlook 2010/13
all behave normally.
Where can I look or what can I check to troubleshoot this issue?

Hi,
Any good news from the Mac Forum?
Thanks,

  • I cannot send email from Outlook 2011 (for Mac). But can send from other applications

    I have Outlook 2011 for Mac - I have validated the settings and up until yesterday could send and receive emails using my .mac account.
    I can send using icloud and mail (I use Outlook for work purposes) and can send in outlook using my work accounts.
    My settings
    Incoming server - imap.mail.me.com
    Use SSL to connect checked.
    Outgoing server - smtp.mail.me.com
    override default port checked (port 587)
    use SSL to connect checked
    authentication - Username and password.
    I have rebuilt the database - no effect.
    I continue to get the error
    "Mail could not be sent
    The server for account "mac" returned the error. 5.7.8. Bad Username or password (Authentication failed..)" Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would you like to try rentering your password"
    I have validated my username and password and rentered them both.
    I have emptied the outbox and retried but nothing works.
    Thanks for the help.

    Update - I now have it working.
    am not really sure what exactly fixed it.
    I changed a lot of things but my setup now has the following which I think fixed.
    outgoing server  - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
    override default port checked - port now 587
    on more options button changed it to "use incoming server info".

  • MS Outlook 2011 for Mac will no longer automatically send and receive email since upgrade to OS 10.9 Mavericks.  Does anyone know of a solution?

    I have been having trouble with Outlook 2011 for Mac since updating to OS 10.9 Marvericks.  I have tried updating the database and identity.  I can get email if a go to each account and try to download it.  But email will not come automatically and can I send and receive all accounts.  Does anyone have a solution?  I do not want to lose my email, contacts and information.

    I am also finding that searching in Mail for emails in this account is leading to false negative results. It's astonishing that I can search for an email I know is in the Inbox list yet not find it unless I scroll down to it manually and clicking it. Then it will show up in the results if I search again. I just did "rebuild" a day ago (have to do that every few days or so to get Outlook Exchange emails restored again anyway), so I doubt that this would fix the issue, but even if it did it's ridiculous... do I really have to abandon Mail and move to Microsoft Outlook on my mac to read my emails? Mail is currently FAILING to work for those of us who have to deal with Microsoft servers... which must be a huge # of customers, Apple.

  • Mails with suspicious links are send to contacts in my Outlook 2011 for Mac

    Hi all
    I have now for two days experienced that emails seems to be sent from my Outlook 2011 for Mac to 4 or 5 people from my contacts with suspicious links - they do not apear in my sent box - but I do get an copy sent to my own inbox ?
    Does anyone know what this is and what to do ?
    Regards
    Gert

    Sounds like your mail account has been hacked. Change the password immediately to a long, random, all over the keyboard one. Never use an ordinary word that can be found in the dictionary. My mail pword is 15 characters long.

  • Sent messages from secondary account are not saved in Outlook 2011 for Mac

    We are using a shared email account added in Outlook 2011 for Mac.  It's not the default account but we send from it often.
    Whenever sending from this secondary mailbox, the message is not saved in sent items folder under the secondary mailbox or the default mailbox.  There seems to be no record of the sent item anywhere.
    I verified the message is sent and received.
    All microsoft updates have been applied and we are using Exchange 2010.

    Hello,
    Please first log into OWA and check if the email are saved in the Sent Items folder.
    We can tick the option "Save copies of messages in Sent Items folder" in Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013 to save a copy of sent message, please check if you get such option in Outlook for Mac.
    In addition, in Outlook for Windows, we can change a registry key to force Outlook to save sent emails in the default or secondary mailbox, but I'm not sure if Outlook 2011 has such trick. See:

  • Import Outlook 2011 for MAC database from a security copy

    After many years using Outlook for Windows, I bought a MAC Book Pro and Outlook 2011 for MAC. I use it for mail, contacts, notes and calendar and yesterday I had a problem. Since then, when I click the Outlook icon what appear is the system completely void. Contacts, notes, schedules, mail folders, everything have disappeared. I have a security copy done on an external hard disk, where I find everything, but I don't know what must I do to recover the Outlook database. I would be very grateful for some help taking into account that I have minimal experience on iOS software.
    Thanks

    Hi Ryan,
    I suggest double check the permission configuration.
    And also check whether the reply button enabled.
    Thanks

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac suddenly requiring passwords

    I've had Outlook 2011 for Mac installed on my Pro (Operating System: Mavericks) for 5 months now and all of a sudden, it's requiring that I enter my password for each email account (I have 4) every time I log in to the program.
    I've typed in the passwords and selected "save to keychain" but that doesn't seem to solve the problem. Please help as this is extremely aggravating!

    Note: This can be a sign of database issues in Outlook or you can simply ignore and it will connect without adding passwords. Mail also has this issue with passwords
    Make sure you are fully updated.
    OS X 10.9.5 Run Combo updater to refresh your OS X files.
    Microsoft Office 14.4.8
    OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 Update (Combo)  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1760
    Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 14.4.8 Update  http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45872
    Open Keychain Access in Applications/Utilities.
    Run Keychain First Aid
    Next....
    In Keychain, filter on an account in the top right search box.
    Open the entry.
    In the Attributes window, select to Show password. You'll need to enter your computer login password to view.
    Verify it's entered correctly.
    Next click on the Access Control tab.
    Do you see Outlook listed? If not add it.
    You might also find many duplicate entries in the keychain. Most email accounts have a sending and receiving entry. However the Keychain.app does not delete old ones when you add a new password so this list can become cluttered. You might want to delete all entries for your email account(s) and add passwords again in Outlook.
    If you have Exchange or IMAP you might want to test the new Outlook v15 free in preview. Requires Yosemite.

    I would not recommend if you have POP accounts.

  • Slow attachment upload with Exchange Web Services (Outlook 2011 for Mac?)

    We're experiencing slow attachment upload with Exchange Web Services versus MAPI, OWA, and Outlook Anywhere.  I'm not totally certain that it is Exchange Web Services or specifically Outlook 2011 for Mac.  I attempted to test with the Mac Mail
    App, but it makes it difficult to tell when the attachment has been uploaded and the file has been sent.  Here's what we're seeing (10mb file):
    MAPI / RPC/HTTPS / OWA: 10-15 seconds upload time
    Exchange Web Services (Outlook 2011 for Mac): 60-90 seconds upload time
    Thoughts? Any idea why we would see such a drastic difference in attachment upload time?  Any way to prove definitively that it is Exchange Web Services vs. Outlook 2011 for Mac?  We've tried it from multiple locations with multiple different machines,
    and although the upload times vary (some locations have more bandwidth etc) the ratios remain similar.

     
    Hi ,
    Does all the user occurred the issue ?
    If only special user, I recommend you do the following steps and test:
    1.Remove and re-add the email account and check if this helps to resolve the issue.
    To remove and add the email accounts:
    Open Outlook > GO to Tools > Accounts > Click on "Minus" symbol to remove and "Plus" to add an Email account.
    2.Creating a new user profile:

    3. If the issue persists, rebuild the data base and check the results:

    Go into the List Advanced Settings, select Allow Management of Content Types.
    Go back to the List Settings, and go into the Content Type (e.g. Item). In the Content Type, click on Title, what is selected there? If it is not Optional, then do so and save the settings.

  • Outlook 2011 for MAC not Updating

    Does anybody have a word on this KB article? 
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2986504
    We are seeing this issue against our Exchange 2013 server with Outlook 2011 for MAC.  Mail will not update unless you manually hit send/receive, or restart the client.  14.4.5 version of Outlook 2011.
    PC's, Active Sync devices (iphones, ipads, windows phones, etc) don't have the problem.

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac not authenticating with Exchange 2010

    Hi,
    We have an issue with our Mac Clients authenticating with our Exchange Server. We have Exchange 2010 Version 14.03.0174.001. 
    Outlook is saying the credentials are incorrect for the user when we know they work fine in OWA and in Outlook 2010.
    It seems this is since we re-keyed are SSL certificate. I have changed the EWS directory to Basic Authentication and also re-created the EWS directory. I have also re-ran all the SBS Wizards.
    Is there anything else we can do to get this sorted?
    Thanks

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac + Oracle Outlook Email Integration On Demand

    Does anyone know of a "Oracle Outlook Email Integration On Demand" plug in that'll work with Outlook 2011 for Mac?

    Hi, 
    Thanks for all of the responses - I have now done these suggested settings which has downloaded all of the separate inbox folders but I am still having a couple of errors: 
    1: If I delete an email on outlook 2011 it doesn't actually delete it from my email account
    Are you 100% sure the account is now IMAP?
    2: I am unable to send any emails I get an SMTP error? 
    Have you ticked the 'My outgoing server requires authentication' box in the outgoing server section.
    3: I still have to click send/receive to receive any emails 
    This is for Outlook 2010 on Windows, but there will be something similar on your version. Go to File>Options>Advanced>Send/Receive where you should be able to set the parameters required.
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

  • Can not cc oneself using outlook 2011 for mac

    Hello, can anyone help me solve this problem? I can send and receive emails using MS Outlook 2011 for Mac on my MacBook Pro, but can not send email to myself or cc or bcc. What shall I do then? Thanks in advance!

    At this time Internet Service Providers are closing port 25 to avoid spammers, at least in my country.
    I must use port 587.
    And normaly you must autentificate the SMTP conection.

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac keeps asking me for password

    I had been using Windows Live Mail (pop 3) for years until last week; rarely, if ever had any problems downloading my mail.
    I just bought a Mac computer and am using Outlook 2011 for Mac; my operating system is Maverick (if that means anything to anyone).
    The BT tech guys suggested I set up my mail accounts as IMAP so that all mail read on the server syncs etc. with my Outlook. It all sounded great. However, ever since I installed Outlook for Mail it asks me for my password numerous times during the day (for each of my 5 email accounts)....it usually does this when the computer has been in sleep mode, i.e., when Outlook tries to download mail from the server. 
    Something else to mention is that whilst the BT tech guys set up my IMAP accounts with:  
    Incoming Port - 993 (requires SSL)
    Outgoing Port - 465 (requires SSL/TLS)
    The BT Mail department (today) told me to revert back to 110 (outgoing)  and 25 (incoming) and to call the incoming and outgoing mail.btinternet.com instead of the smtp.........(I forget the rest of it now) that the tech guys set it up as.
    I've since reverted the incoming and outgoing to mail.btinternet.com but haven't changed the numbers to 110 and 25 because the BT Mail guy said "if you are able to send/receive using the 993 and 465...just leave them. And I *am* able to send/receive. The problem is more the password prompt and the message "server not recognised" or whatever it says....I can't recall the exact words.
    I phoned Apple and they of course say it is an Outlook problem; not an Apple one, though they did help me delete the mail settings in their keychain thingie so that I could put in my passwords again (all passwords are correct by the way).
    Apple did ask, however if my internet service provider are happy for me to have mail set up as IMAP; she epxlained  that it really isn'y *my* choice; it's the server people's choice. 
    My questions are therefore: 1) who/what is my server? Is it BT? My email addresses are all btinternet.com and I'm also using BT Broadband for both home and my business/office.
    I just don't understand why Outlook keeps prompting me for password so my second question is 2) does anyone know why I am being prompted for my password as often as I am? Does this have to do with IMAP settings? with Outlook? or with my Server? or possibly all of the above? and how does one identify the real issue?
    Many thanks! 

    Hi Steve,
    Thanks for this-yes, eventually, I do send/receive fine, once I've poppedd my passwords in. 
    I think you are right in that BT seem to be having unique server/login issues...at least this is what I've read elsewhere too.
    Iroonically, this AM I opened my new Mac and have *not* been asked for passwords so perhaps the changes I made in the settings yesterday (keychain reset in Mac) and also changing it from smtp.....to mail.btinternet.com solved the issue...who knows? All I know is this last week I've nearly lost the will to live on more than one occasion, from the transition from PC Windows Live Mail to Outlook for Mac.

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac stops retrieving new e-mail

    I have both Outlook 2011 for Mac and Apple Mac tied to the same Gmail account via IMAP. After a few hours, Outlook stops retrieving new e-mail while Apple Mail continues retrieving new e-mail with no problem. I've already deleted the Gmail account from Outlook and recreated it. What could be causing this? Should Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac be re-installed? Does Outlook 2011 create a log during the e-mail send/receive process that I can review?
