Outlook not connected in Microsoft Exchange Server

I am new to Exchange Server 2003 and I have a friend with a network server that I don't know how to re-establish a user to the network. I moved one of his non used computers to this station and now when I try to log in the user I get the error that the name can't be verified because Outlook is not connected or online. This computer used to be online with a different user. Can anyone tell me the steps to check this? Thanks.

 

MS Outlook 2007 set up mistake

Why are you setting up your Outlook email to use MS Exchange?

You have the choice of POP, IMAP or Exchange {EAS**} email access-retrieval methods.
- If you had Outlook 365 / Outlook 2019 you 'd be forced into setting up as an EAS - it is the new default. Doing something else is possible but difficult.
- With Outlook 2007, we have an open choice of which method to use.

** Added on 24 Sep - I don't think it is relevant to the current problem but I should not have used the term EAS in relation to Outlook 2007. The desktop versions of Outlook now only work with pop, imap {just email} or the full Exchange facility. This was explained in Outlook.com - Switch Account to Microsoft Exchange - SlipStick
