Some features of Microsoft Exchange Server accounts depend on the version of Exchange that your account connects to.
How can I tell if I have a Microsoft Exchange Server account?
Click the File tab. Click Account Settings, and then click Account Settings. On the E-mail tab, the list of accounts indicates the type of each account.
To determine the version of Exchange that your account connects to, do the following:
-
With Microsoft Outlook running, press and hold CTRL while you right-click the Outlook icon in the notification area.
-
Click Connection Status.
-
Move the horizontal slider all the way to the right.
Note: Under the Version column heading, note the number that appears.
