Send/Receive error - only when it feels like it!!

I am at my wits end with this! I have Microsoft 365, I have updated, cleared caches, got rid of every rule since they really don't work anyway, checked my passwords a million times, cntrl alt delete to turn off anything remotely connected, but when this happens, and I never know when it will be, but always the worst possible time, the only way to get the thing working again is to restart my PC! I thought of trying the new outlook, but then i started reading the posts from people who have!! this is ridiculous! These programs are not cheap, and they should be idiot proof! can someone please stop me throwing my pc through a window? thankyou in advance cheers, jo

    Hi jo_says_hi,

    you can try to remove and then create a new Outlook profile and see if it helps:

    Create an Outlook profile - Microsoft Support
