New Outlook - Cannot connect to server
I was actually able to figure this out in my organization at least. I found this article,https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/clients-and-mobile-in-exchange-online/outlook-on-the-web/enable-disable-employee-access-new-outlook, and determined that OneWinNativeOutlookEnabled has to be set to $true. If it is set to $false or blank for a user then they cannot connect.
As soon as I changed it from blank to $true, and waited about 15 minutes for it to propagate, for my colleague and I the issue went away

- Thank you so much. After the first guy in IT tried it and comlained they had disabled it without my knowing. This worked perfectly and allowed me to enable it just for my mailbox. Thanks, TimTrag!
