Hmmmmmmmm.

My parents were having issues with very old versions of Office recently. Maybe the update is creating issues. The problem stems from IPv6 vs. IPv4 DNS issues. Until recently, they had an old Wireless G WiFi router connected to the cable modem, which was limited to IPv4. When a Comcast/Xfinity rep installed a newer cable modem/phone/Wifi Router, he removed the old Wifi router and reprogrammed each wireless device to use the new wifi router. Office 2003 became DOA. When testing, the error was couldn't lookup the DNS of the mail server.

I thought the issue was the new router, but maybe it is this Windows 10 update.
