Now to check everything is good.

To Test – 

Note (On-Premises) : Make sure you CNAME record is configured for autodiscover to work – Autodiscover.domain.com CNAME to Mail.domain.com

Login to

https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/

Multi-Tenant Scenario –

In a Multi tenant scenario – Make sure you got the srv record created . so that you need not to have more entries on the SAN Cert.

Lets say

Domain1.com

Domain2.com

is hosted on Cloud.com

You got configure a SRV record in Domain1.com and Point to Cloud.com , So that Outlook auto discover will contact Cloud.com Autodiscover and Outlook will work without any Certificate Errors

and you need not to buy Cert for Every domain you host on the cloud.

For Example a SRV record should look like :

“_autodiscover._tcp.testcareexchange.biz”

By Using SRV record method

Recommended  Using Autodiscover Service for Outlook Configuration . As the Servername will be ExchangeGuid@ mailbox@domain.com

Make Sure Outlook is Updated using Windows Update

So that Outlook will support exchange 2013

  • Outlook 2013 (15.0.4420.1017)
