| The issue was introduced in Microsoft's latest update to Mac Outlook 2011 (v. 14.1.3), and will need to be corrected by Microsoft. The issue is not interfering with the ability to send or receive mail, and users' NetID passwords are not at risk of "expiring". | The issue was introduced in Microsoft's latest update to Mac Outlook 2011 (v. 14.1.3), and will need to be corrected by Microsoft.
