Office 365 Business: Outlook unable to add private email account

Hi

is there any limitation that within Outlook, which I use on my private computer (as part of Office 365 business plan I am allowed to use Office 365 on up to 5 devices at home) to add private email accounts? It seems to me that I cannot add any private email account, only my company's email address is accepted.

    VasilMichev Hi, many thanks! So this must be something related to our IT policy, and not Microsoft which changed its policy. I will ask our folks then.

  • No, you can add any account. Now, if your personal device is under effect of an Intune/Office cloud policy, there might be certain restrictions applied, so best talk to your IT folks.
