Symptoms

Mac OS High Sierra, Outlook 16.11 thru 16.13, Exchange 2010 on premises. Although I’m extremely grateful to have found this post, neither workaround worked 100% as the issue comes back. Downgrading to Outlook 15.37 solves the problem but don’t want to do that with end users just yet.

Consider the following scenario:

  • You enable access to Exchange Web Services (EWS) in a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 environment.

  • You disable access to a mailbox for Microsoft Outlook for Mac 2011 in Exchange Web Services. To do this, you run the Set-CasMailbox or Set-OrganizationConfig cmdlet and set the EwsAllowMacOutlook parameter to false in the Exchange Management Console.

  • A user uses Outlook for Mac 2011 to log on to the mailbox through Exchange Web Services.

In this scenario, the user can log on to the mailbox unexpectedly.
