    A bit confused on what I have to fill in...


    This is not Windows 10, but Android, but the details required are Windows.
    First: I use Office 365, subscription, Outlook on Exchange basis.

    On Adroid
    in some screen, when adding an account, I can select Microsoft Exchange.
    Need to enter my Outlook email address and password.

    But then I need to fill in:
    Description:___ ( I guess something like 'Personal')
    Server:_________ (beats me... outlook.com??)
    Domain: ________(??)
    Username:_____ (my Outlook email address?, or just the part before the '@'-character )


    Appreciate assistance on this. Went back and forth on the Microsoft site but not sure about the correct stuff to be entered there.

    Thanks!

    For a personal account on a phone i'd suggest iMap or POP3, if you're having to use exchange then your organisation admin will have the details.

    Configuring Your Email Client for Office 365 - IT Services

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...3-45a1161f3cc3

    Look a the settings there...

    Who's your e-mail provider? Because the username may be a domain and not your e-mail address.

    How to add your Exchange account to Outlook for Android – Sherweb

    Scroll down to after the "horizontalish" blue table (where it says webmail). See if that information is helpful.

    Thanks for the links. It is all Outlook.com, individual use, no company, nothing.
    Outlook is using Microsoft Exchange.
    In case of a new install, I only need to enter my email address and password, that's it. You don't to worry about server addresses, ports, SSL/TLS stuff.

    Anyway, I think I found some more details. Probably it is like this (not tested)
    Server: outlook.office365.com
    Username: outlook email address
    Domain: outlook.com

    Folks, let it rest.

    I'll stick to Gmail Calendar on my smartphone. Outlook doesn't work properly.
    Only data after July 1st this year is showing up, nothing before that date, not after a day, not after synchronizing a dozen times.
    Gmail shows everything. So I drop it.

    Many thanks for taking the time to investigate and reply!
