I don't know if my experience is relevant but I used to have significant
difficulties connecting to an Outlook exchange server while I had no
problems with gmail. What I did to fix it is set up my system to use a
different set of DNS servers. For some reason, my home ISP's default
servers had real problems with Microsoft's server addresses.
I switched to the OpenDNS servers (https://www.opendns.com/) and
everything goes much more quickly now.
