IMAP set up in Outlook

[#1]

Hi

I've just got a new laptop, and I'm setting up my email again. I've never had an issue with getting Outlook to open with my FOL mailbox, but for some reason I can't get it to do it this time. The mailbox works OK, (I think the settings came across when the new laptop pulled over a backup of my old machine), but when I start up Classic Outlook, it defaults to a school  governor mail box on an exchange server, and it won't let me change the default to the IMAP FOL account.

What am I doing wrong?

Have you tried to configure Outlook through Control Panel -->Mail?  Changes made here tend to stick.

Yes. it comes up exactly the same. The suggestion is to disable the exchange cache, but none of the ways of doing that that Google throws up matches what I can see.

Found what I needed!, I ignored all the advice on line and started from scratch.

File - Options- Advanced-Outlook start and exit

Seems obvious once you've found it 😒

Thanks for your help.

Most things are obvious once found.🤗
