Symptoms

When you test and enable a mailbox in Dynamics 365 (formerly known as Dynamics CRM Online), you encounter one of the following errors in the Alerts area:

  • Mailbox <Mailbox Name> didn't synchronize because an error occurred while connecting to the email server. The owner of the associated email server profile <Email Server Profile Name> has been notified.
  • Mailbox <Mailbox Name> didn't synchronize appointments, contacts, and tasks because an error occurred while connecting to the Microsoft Exchange server. The owner of the associated email server profile <Email Server Profile Name> has been notified.
  • The email message "Test Message" cannot be sent because an error occurred while connecting to the email server. Mailbox <Mailbox Name> didn't synchronize. The owner of the associated email server profile <Email Server Profile Name> has been notified.
Each of the errors above, also include the following error code:

Cause

This error can occur for one of the following reasons:

  1. The mailbox for the user could not be found because the email address is not correct or the mailbox is not currently available.
  2. The configuration of the associated Email Server Profile is not correctly configured to be able to locate the mailbox.

Resolution

  1. Verify the e-mail address of the mailbox record in Dynamics 365 matches the e-mail address in Exchange. The error includes a link to the mailbox record in Dynamics 365. You can use this link to quickly verify the Email Address field.  If the email address is correct, verify the mailbox is available by opening it with your email application such as Outlook or Outlook Web Access. 
  2. Verify the configuration of the associated Email Server Profile. If you are using Dynamics 365 (online) with Exchange on-premises, make sure you are using an Exchange Server (Hybrid) email server profile. Only use an Exchange Online profile for users that have mailboxes in Exchange Online.
