The result you got back was correct.<br />
All users on Exchange 2013 have a unique endpoint instead of a server name. Therefore what you are seeing is what I would expect.<br />
<br />
As for the script error - is OWA on the default site? You can set the virtual directory manually through ECP. If that was the only one to fail then that is probably what I would do. <br />

hi it seem that after making these changes on the MS outlook programs I still get the error <br />
Cannot start Microsoft Outlook <br />
the set of folders Cannot be opened &nbsp;you must connect to Microsoft exchange with a current profile &nbsp; before <br />
you can synchronise your folders with your outlook data File (.ost)<br />
<br />
even those I have check the mail setting over and over.<br />
any Ideas.

<div>
The usually means the client cannot connect to the server. On Exchange 2013 it only uses Outlook Anywhere, so you need to ensure the host name configured within the Outlook Anywhere configuration is correct.<br />
