So, I was having this BRUTALLY annoying issue on my macs (when I work from home, I work on my mac) where, every time I launched Outlook 2016, I would be prompted to login with my credentials... Just super annoying and unnecessary.
Theres a ton of documentation on 'how to fix this' but a lot of it misses an important step (also, a facepalm step).
6 Steps total
Step 1: Open the Keychain
Theres a bunch of ways to do it, but ultimately, the easiest way is to press CMD+Space, to open spotlight, then search 'Keychain Access'.
Step 2: Clear old items relating to Exchange/MS login in the keychain
According to a Microsoft Representative, the best option here is:
Make sure you quit Outlook and other Office apps.
Search 'Exchange' under Login --> All Items and delete everything (NOT EVERYTHING - take a look and make sure you're only deleting entries that are in some way related to Microsoft)
Search 'Office' and delete everything
Search 'ADAL' and delete everything
Step 3: Open Outlook & Login
Yea, I know, we're trying to fix this - but you have to log in this ONE more time...
Step 4: Open Outlook Preferences from the menu
Click Outlook -> Preferences in the menu bar
Step 5: Open Accounts
Open the Accounts Section...
Step 6: Finally... Add your password
Seriously - this is critical! Add your password in the password field for the account in question, then close the preferences window.
NOW - when you restart Outlook you SHOULD NOT have to login!
While this isn't the most difficult or pressing issue in the world, it most definitely is annoying! I hope this guide helps some folks!

Thanks for posting. I've seen this quite a few times from multiple users

Tried and still not working for me. Box will not go away. :(

Thanks for posting, but the login box still appears. A question -- when I searched Exchange, should I delete the Private Exchange Key (two of them) and Public Exchange Key (also two files)?

still not working for me. I have 3 office 365 accounts, and every time I should enter the password 3 times for each account. It is really annoying

A couple of steps we added to our recipe to workaround this longstanding issue:
- Open Keychain Access > View > Show Invisible Items
- After deleting entries in Keychain related to office, exchange, and adal > restart computer.
- In Keychain > lock the login entry.
- Open Outlook > input password to allow access to Keychain again
- Continue with steps to input password into the password textbox under Tools > Accounts > mailbox(es) having issues
- Restart Outlook
