    First check if your account still works (mine got cancelled because I traveled to Italy last year and someone in Microsoft thought I must be a hacker trying to access my mail). Try to update office or even reinstalling it. If you use IMAP, you can install Thunderbird, it's ugly, but it works... While your Outlook don't want to work, at least you can rely on this one. Hope this helps, though I am sure you've already thought on doing that.

    Tried running the installer again. It now sends mail, but still doesn't receive it :doh: I really only have one option: Fix it. I'm still getting emails on my phone so I can restart Outlook when I see something on my phone and get the email, reply, restart again to send... At least I'm not missing anything, but it's very strange behavior :confused:

      Office 365? or the normal program without extra cloud services? Check this: Repair an Office application[^] Maybe it helps you. Otherwise, you could try activating the insider version (to force update the app). Or, in case it's the 365 flavour you could call them to get tech support, though the first thing they require is to try the app in the first link I sent you. Hope this helps.

        Piece of #$@#%^!@# Outlook! :mad: Since yesterday I'm suddenly not receiving any emails nor is it sending any except on startup. Even then, when I have a new email and I read it, it won't actually show up as read. Manually clicking "Send/Receive All Folders" does absolutely nothing. This happens for all my email accounts (I've had a similar issue about two months back, but that was just on my main email account). Outlook doesn't close when I close it either, have to kill it using the task manager. How can an application whose sole purpose is receiving, reading and sending emails suddenly not do any of those things!? :((

          Is your webhost hosting your mail server? Look up your MX records using the following: https://www.whatsmydns.net/[^] Set the drop list to MX (mail records) and then type in your mail host name. You may see (as a friend of mine did) that the MX records are not registered quite properly and you don't get email and you get weird sending. Here's a sample link with my host & email records[^].

                Used the repair tool, uninstalled everything, but the same issue persists :(( I really don't trust tech support, that will take weeks and ultimately, I'll have to fix it myself. No errors in the event viewer either. How the :elephant: is this even possible!? :((

                  The problem is with all my accounts, with different web hosts, all at the same time. I'm pretty positive the problem is Outlook.

                          Weird. I'm on Win10 too. For some reason my Outlook completely borks up about once a year on average. It's always another kind of issue though, so it's not like I know how to fix it. Not the most stable piece of software... Although it works when it works I guess.

                              I can, but it is still driven by Exchange. But then again, pretty much any email server nowadays seems to have a web interface. If you are on exchange, you can get the url on the Outlook Info page.

                                You need to go into Options and uncheck the "Screw up randomly" box.

                                    It seems here that you *checks notes* signed up for Office 364. ;P

                                      The problem is with all my accounts, with different web hosts, all at the same time. I'm pretty positive the problem is Outlook.

                                      Yeah, that makes sense that it is the Outlook client. Just thought I'd mention that in case it was something similar.

                                        Piece of #$@#%^!@# Outlook! :mad: Since yesterday I'm suddenly not receiving any emails nor is it sending any except on startup. Even then, when I have a new email and I read it, it won't actually show up as read. Manually clicking "Send/Receive All Folders" does absolutely nothing. This happens for all my email accounts (I've had a similar issue about two months back, but that was just on my main email account). Outlook doesn't close when I close it either, have to kill it using the task manager. How can an application whose sole purpose is receiving, reading and sending emails suddenly not do any of those things!? :((

                                        you need to ask Microsoft kindly to switch the server off and on. ;P
