Symptoms

Outlook 2019, Outlook 2016, Outlook 2013, Microsoft Outlook 2010, Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, Outlook for Office 365; In this article. Original KB number: 3044375. In Microsoft Outlook, you discover that the server count and offline item count for a particular folder do not match. The following screen shot illustrates this issue. Even though the control says 'items in view', Outlook can't properly count them in a filtered view so total items and unread item counts aren't shown. When the view is changed to one that doesn’t have a filter (or the filter is cleared), the counts will display when they are checked in the Customize Status Bar dialog. Published June 10, 2014.

Assume that Microsoft Outlook 2016 for Mac performs an Autodiscover operation. For example, Outlook performs an Autodiscover operation during Outlook start or periodically while Outlook runs. In this scenario, you may receive a warning message that resembles the following:

A secure connection cannot be established with the server <domain.com> because its intermediate or root certificate cannot be found. Do you want to continue?
If you continue, the information that you view and send will be encrypted, but will not be secure.

Cause

This issue occurs in Outlook 2016 for Mac version 15.9 and later versions when Outlook performs an Autodiscover operation and tries to connect to a service endpoint whose expected name is not present on the server's Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate.

As an example, consider the domain Contoso.com. This domain has an SSL certificate configured for the domain Wingtiptoys.com. When Outlook 2016 for Mac performs Autodiscover, it uses the domain name part of the user's SMTP address to query DNS. In this example, it tries to connect the URL https://contoso.com/Autodiscover/Autodiscover.xml, and it expects the certificate for the top-level domain Contoso.com. However, Outlook receives the certificate that is named Wingtiptoys.com. The certificate name mismatch causes Outlook to present the warning that is mentioned in the 'Symptoms' section.
When you view the details of the certificate by clicking Show Certificate, you see a warning message in the certificate details that states the following:

This certificate is not valid (host name mismatch)

If you receive a certificate warning that resembles this warning but does not contain the phrase 'host name mismatch,' method 1 in the 'Resolution' section may not resolve the issue.
