Outlook Password Prompt Query

Hi all,

 

Hopefully a quick query. Does anyone know how many times Outlook (using basic authentication) will retry with invalid saved credentials before prompting the user to enter new credentials?

 

Thanks very much.

  • Um, I've seen different behaviors on that one. More often than not, it will continue trying the stored credentials and eventually cause a lockdown, but I've also seen it prompt for credentials. I guess it depends on the version too.
