-Use compatibility mode.  Reference info in [[email|]] section of wiki +

-===Outlook constantly prompts for my password!=== +
-This typically occurs because Outlook 2010 requires you re-validate your email credentials because your network connection has changed. This can occur going from wired to wireless, sleep/​hibernate to being On or switching between wifi networks.\\  +
-:!: Please note that Outlook automatically enters your username **incorrectly** as your email address. You will have to change the username field to firstinitallastname@olin.edu ​(your Olin network credentials). +
