    Hi! My name is Ben a fellow member here in the community and hope you are doing well!

    Can you tell us what application you are using to access your Outlook.com email? Based on the message "UniversalOutlook" this commonly appears if you have setup your account on the Windows mail application of Windows 10/11 device. It will show as UniversalOutlook and some sort of code like 07BE etc.

    Here is a similar post in one of the community forum, the thread is a bit old but explanation is the same https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com....

    I hope the information helps. But feel free to post back if you have further quesitons and we will try iwth the best of our knowledge to assist.

    Kind regards,

    Ben
