outlook 2016 manually setup

Hi All, is there a way to setup outlook 2016 manually to connect to exchange server where a machine is not on the domain - so without using auto-discover?
i can see in outlook 2016 it is missing the option "microsoft exchange or compatible service"

You can try to set it up as a pop3 account since it's not on the domain.

Do you have OWA configured on the exchange server. You should be able to do POP or IMAP with the external webmail address. That's how I do it at home.

Outlook 2016 works fine for me.

Open Outlook, File, Account Settings, Add an Account. In Account Settings, select New Account. At the bottom of the next Windows. select Manual Setup. That takes you to the screen below where you can add an Exchange or POP account. I added a bunch of accounts this way.

Can you contact Microsoft Support?  I have Outlook 2016 (and working) but I can emulate your environment in any way,
