Microsoft Outlook is one of the widely used web-based email services for sending and receiving the emails for various purposes (like confidential or personal). Apart from the emailing feature, the Outlook also allows its users to manage their daily tasks through ‘Task Manager’, schedule their meetings through the ‘Calendar’ feature and many more. Despite of having such advanced features, the Outlook users may face some common issues or errors while sending or retrieving the emails on their Outlook account. And the most common sending or receiving error is the Outlook Error Code 0x800cccdd. In the below information, I am introducing the stepwise procedure for resolving the Outlook Error Code 0x800cccdd. The basic reason behind the Outlook Error Code 0x800cccdd is that the Outlook application is not functioning properly with the IMAP connection. As the IMAP is highly sophisticated type of protocol that automatically handles the mails over the network and thus, it does not require any settings for synchronizing the emails to the local machine from the server. As a result of it whenever the users initializes the Outlook application, the IMAP automatically synchronizes the database and updates from the server itself. As the Outlook Error Code 0x800cccdd occurs on the screen, a message box with the error message is displayed on the screen. The error messages are as follows:   Your IMAP server closed the connection. Outlook application hangs after adding new mail account error code: 0x800cccdd   Before initializing the resolving steps, the users should be aware about the version of the Outlook application they are using on their device.
