Yes I have outlook anywhere enable on the exchange server, the funny thing it works on my laptop fine, and I have the same setting in the other, that why I am puzzle.
At this remote site - could GPO be cancelling the setting?
this is not a remote site, It just a couple users that work outside the office.
So no GPO's being applied to them that would resit this setting?
No, everything were working fine until few days ago and have not make any changes are do any updates on the server.
You may not have changed something, but your web host may have done.
You need to an Autodiscover test within Outlook to see what information is being returned to the client.

simon,

I've test the connection and everything seems fine, I am running out of option.
Did you do the test from outside of your network?
I am seeing so many problems recently with Autodiscover being disrupted by changes made by web hosts that it is almost becoming the first thing to check.

You could also setup a test account and then run it through Microsoft's test site at https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/

Simon,

When I run the test the only exception I get is.

Analyzing the certificate chains for compatibility problems with versions of Windows.
  Potential compatibility problems were identified with some versions of Windows.
 
 Additional Details
 
Every other check return fine.
That is a fairly normal configuration "error". It is because of changes to the root certificates that are constantly going on, which Microsoft no longer apply to the oldest versions of Windows.

If you browse (externally) to https://example.com/Autodiscover/Autodiscover.xml what happens?
That is the root of your public domain name. You must do it from outside of your network.

Simon,

I get the message below when I try to login

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

-<Autodiscover xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/responseschema/2006">


-<Response>


-<Error Id="1046638289" Time="19:51:46.5971812">

</Error>

</Response>

</Autodiscover>
Two things.

1 - that error is to be expected on Autodiscover, because you aren't an Outlook client.
2 - if that was to the root of your domain (as per my instructions) from an external machine AND the root of your domain does not point to your Exchange server, then you shouldn't have got anything - certainly not that XML response.
That suggests that my first suggestion - the problem being at your web host, is indeed the case.
