You may see a message appear in Microsoft Outlook 2016 that says something similar to:

Outlook was redirected to the server Autodiscover-s.outlook.com to get new settings for your account <emailaddress>. Do you want to allow this server to configure your settings?https://autodiscover-s.outlook.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml

Click Allow only if you fully trust the source, or if your Exchange administrator instructs you to.

If you see this message pop up a lot and wish to disable it, you can turn it off using these steps.

  1. From the Desktop/Finder, select “Go” > “Utilities“.
  2. Open the “Terminal” application.
  3. Type the following command, then press “Enter“.
    defaults write com.microsoft.Outlook TrustO365AutodiscoverRedirect -bool true

    You need a terminal window, so go to your Launchpad and look for “Terminal”
