Outlook 2016 not receiving mails

Outlook 2016 not receiving mails. I hit this problem when I had to copy over my pst file to a new laptop. And I have been doing this for over a dozen times since Outlook 2007, 2010, 2013 and now, 2016.

There's a lot of users who also experience this problem, and there have been various suggestions, fixes, etc., and while many have it fixed and done and working again, still a lot encounter it, or never get to fix it.

Well, I did mine, and it is working fine again.


First attempted fix:

What worked for me:

I won't copy over the fix outlined in page as per link above, which worked for me, so I don't go plagiarizing somebody else's work. Besides, the list is so long, and perhaps I tried more than one before getting Outlook 2016 not receiving mails fixed for me. Or maybe the first one already did it. I can't remember. But surely I marked the pages and which one worked for me.

Hope you fix yours, too. Happy e-mailing again.

Till then!
