Hi,Please verify if the issue occur to all the users.Please check if the connection has been set on the terminal server.
Please try to create a new windows profile and outlook profile to check the issue again.
Please check if other outlook users(not access outlook from terminal) have the issue.
Also please check the event viewer to see if any error event have been logged there. Please post the detail error information here.

We are running the exact same setup, and I am wondering what you did to resolve this issue? I have tried the 2 below solutions and neither have worked. However we do not have terminal services gateway installed so we did not try that fix. Any info would be great.
