Outlook connectivity error

I usually get an error Trying to connect to the Outlook server and creates a loop. We can usually fix this problem by resetting the Outlook profile (remove and then recreate). However, how do I solve this issue, when client doesn't have Admin access to Outlook properties? I was wondering if there is a way to solve that under Admin login.

A user doesn't need Admin privileges to change settings within his/her pst file.
With the user logged in and the pst file open:
Tools Email accounts View or Change Change More Settings Advanced Change the timeout to a longer time Then just OK and go back to the Outlook Screen
