New Minimum Version Requirements for Connecting Outlook to Office 365/Microsoft 365

After November 1, 2021, only Outlook 2013 Service Pack 1 (with latest fixes) and later will be able to connect to Microsoft 365 services.

If you’re still running older versions of Outlook – including Outlook 2007, 2010, and Office 2013 versions earlier than 15.0.4971.1000 – please start working on a plan to upgrade by November 1.

Why is it important to upgrade now?

• Older versions of Outlook are incompatible with upcoming Microsoft service changes, including authentication upgrades.
• Clients using older versions of Outlook may encounter performance or reliability issues, as well as increased security risks.
• Updated versions have new features to help improve efficiency and performance.
