Hi,
You confirmed that for other users its working. but while configuring the new user profile it prompting for the password and you are able to authenticate as well, but its not resolving the mailbox.
Few things you can check
1. Check Mailbox - hope this is not be hidden.
2. run the Auto discover test by going https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/, select outlook autodiscover.
This should help to identifying the problem.

Hello,
From the result, this may be DNS resolution issue. Please verify whether there is a record for autodiscover on DNS server or DNS SRV record.
Please check if your certificate is SAN certificate.
A new feature is available that enables Outlook 2007 to use DNS Service Location (SRV) records to locate the Exchange Autodiscover service

Hi Yasser ,
To configure Exchange AutoDiscover correctly you may need to review below points and make sure it's configured correctly :
1- Enable autodiscover on Exchagen Server (CAS) with your external domain.either using EMC or EMS for example :
Enable-OutlookAnywhere -Server CAS01 -ExternalHostname "mail.contoso.com" -DefaultAuthenticationMethod "Basic" -SSLOffloading:$False
2- Configure your Public DNS records for autodiscover.contoso.com (which will point to your CAS server real IP).
3-configure your network firewall (if exist) to allow and accept external connections through port 80 / 443.
4-review your SAN name of your certificate and make sure it include the autodiscover.yourdomain.com
