When I click the button it opens a generic msn webpage. My company uses DSSO so everything is already signed in. Can't seem to find anyone else who has had this error. I have tried repairing office, recreating mail profile etc.

    This feature is available in Outlook for Windows for Current Channel (Preview) users on Version 2004 (Build 12730.20150) or later. Following the registry entry will disable it.

    reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\General" /v "EnableImprovedCaptivePortalExperience" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

    I'm having this annoyance as well. When connected to wireless it complains about not having a connection to my local domain email. We do not have email on the local domain, we use a different domain for email on O365.

    I had the same issue with the yellow banner on Outlook 2016 + Windows 10.

    I was connected to the internet through WiFi and ethernet at the same time. I resolved the issue by disconnecting from my WiFi connection.
