Have a look at this article https://www.dummies.com/software/microsoft-office/outlook/whats-new-in-outlook-2019/ and the section titled . . . But Trickier Advanced Account Setup. 

Follow the instructions 1 to 7 under Here’s where it gets tricky. To get at the actual mail server settings, you have to use the Repair command, like this: using the information noted below.
