In this article,, we will teach you how to configure Outlook 2007 in Microsoft 365. In order to keep its software up-to-date, Microsoft has always released new versions that are better and improved older versions with suitable changes and fixes. This is the main reason why people don’t switch to a better version of the software. But Microsoft stops supporting older software after a specific period of time and doesn’t keep updating it.
The updated version of Microsoft Outlook is 2019, and its previous versions like 2010, 2013, and 2016 are still active and getting mainstream support from Microsoft. When Microsoft support expires, the extended support works for a limited period. If you are still using MS Outlook 2007, then you should be aware that Microsoft has ended both mainstream and extended support a long time ago. It means, you won’t get any update, fix, or support for Outlook 2007.
If you continue to use Outlook 2007 and want to add Microsoft 365, you can do so by using the IMAP settings and the Microsoft 365 Mail Server’s specific ports.
| MAIL SERVER | PORT | ENCRYPTION METHOD | |
| SMTP | Smtp.office365.com | 25 | TLS |
| IMAP | Outlook.office365.com | 993 | SSL |
| POP3 | Outlook.office365.com | 995 | TLS |
