Please note this is not affecting all clients using Microsoft Office 365 in Outlook but a smaller subset, showing that Microsoft have not fully rolled this out to the client base.
Access are currently testing these registry fixes in the Cloud test environment. We will then be evaluating the impact on these changes to modern authentication accounts as well as those that have not been moved from basic to modern authentication accounts (which currently is the large majority) to fully understand the change before putting in a change request and implementing said change.
This is a crucial step that needs to be conducted to ensure platform stability.
If you are affected by this issue the steps we can advise for now are:
