I have been using Outlook 365 for over a year now but in the last month or 2, I have had several clients telling me their emails to me are being bounced back. After doing some digging and analyzing, I determined when the recipient replies to my email, the 'reply to' address is filling in incorrectly. Change the reply to address in Outlook 2016. Typically you would change the reply to address for an individual email or a couple of emails and that would be it. However, if you want to permanently add or change the reply to address you can do that too, except if you use Exchange as already mentioned. Change the reply to address for each email.
