    My Work account keeps getting locked because my personal outlook account tried to log into it


    Hello,I have a work account with 365 E3 but no Exchange online email and a personal outlook account.My Work account is connected to the on premises Active Directory which have a policy that automatically locks the account after 5 failed logins within an hour. My account on Active directory keeps getting locked all the time because my personal account is trying to log in to it all the time using a wrong password, the Azure access stays fine though. I tried checking the Email Sync from the Outlook web access of my personal account is connected to my work account but there is no "Linked Account

    outlook account config

    SO today my friend asked me if i could post this question on the forum:



    He wants to configure a outlook account with 1 email, with that outlook account he wants to run the same account in 2 diferent computers he wants the both computer to be connected in network, for example:



    • he receives a email and that email is sent to each computer;
    • he deletes a email from one computer and it also deletes on the other;
    • he moves a email to a folder it also moves on the other computer;
    If you guys can help me would be nice!

  3. email account hacked. please help

    Also may I suggest you change email accounts to one of the following.....

    Gmail
    Outlook

    The reason is they both use "Step two verification". This style of verification means even if a hacker gets your password they cannot log in to your account. You see every time someone try's to log in that hasn't been verified you will get a text or a phone call giving you a final code to log in. Its very easy and simple to setup also. The great thing is once you setup your Email application with a specific "application password" from that account you never have to log in again AND your account is protected from being logged in from foreign entities.

    I like the new outlook personally however Gmail is also damn good. Gmail also has an IP tracker that allows you to see WHERE the account has been logged in from. Anyway let us know if you wanna change over and have any questions. We will be happy to help and welcome to TPU!
