Hi,

Please check whether there is any related Exchange service is not started in Exchange 2013. Please restart the following service:
Microsoft Exchange RPC Client Access
Microsoft Exchange Service Host
Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Assistants
Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication

Also check whether the mailbox can be available in OWA. In Exchange server, please check whether there is any related error in Event Viewer.

We got the issue resolved by using the Exchange shell set-outlookanywhere cmdlet.

ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod : Negotiate

InternalClientAuthenticationMethod : Ntlm

IISAuthenticationMethods           : {Basic, Ntlm, Negotiate}

Once these were in place, Outlook Anywhere worked normally.

Thanks!
