The third-party email client applications are the easy-to-access email application which allows the user to get their emails with just a single click, right from the desktop. Users don’t need to sign in and check emails on each moment they wish to access their email account; their account will be configured on it and you can do it easily.
One of the most exclusive features of such an email client application is the Offline feature; so you can read and check your previous emails even if you are offline. This helps users as sometimes, they have connectivity issues and unable to sign in; but they can refer the previous mails.
The process is easy to configure your Outlook email account with the email client application. Here comes the real issue, when a user found it difficult to send or receive email on it after configuring. There could be some issue with your internet service if it interrupted by any means; you won’t get an email in your inbox. Once you fix it, the problem can be fixed. If the problem still persists, you need to review the incoming and outgoing email server settings.

We have both of these settings for you, you can take help from the given server settings and get the issue fixed.
