I downloaded Office 365 on two of four P/C's. I have been using Office 2013 and no problems with Outlook. Outlook 2016 will not login to Business Mail - says it is unsupported. Has anyone else had problems?

I have not tried business mail but you can not manually configure exchange mail. You have to have externally published autodiscover records / certificates etc.

I have read that if you want to use exchange manually is to install Outlook 2013 and configure. Install Outlook 2016 and it should pick up the settings.

There is a registry hack online to move the profile from 2013 to 2016 if the profile does not move itself.

All in all a real pain in the ...

It appears that the old Spark Business Mail is using Server 2007 and so is not supported by Outlook 2016. I have applied to upgrade to the new Business Mail and will have to wait and see if that is compatible.
