Mobile Configuration

Installing and Configuring the Outlook App

  • Access the app store for your mobile device and search for Microsoft Outlook (a free application).
  • Once you locate the Outlook app, click the Install button; you may need to accept the access terms to proceed, and the download and installation will begin.
  • Once the installation has completed, launch the app.
  • Click Add Account to begin configuration. Allow Outlook to send you notifications if prompted. You will be asked to enter your Stetson email address, or select the account(s) you would like to add, then Continue.
  • If prompted, enter your Stetson email address and password. Then, Sign In.
  • Outlook will complete your login, and will ask if you would like to set up any additional accounts; you may add another account or select Maybe later to continue.

It may take a few moments for your email to populate, but you will see your Inbox and messages below once complete. Clicking on your avatar in the upper left corner will reveal shortcuts to other folders in your mailbox.

Configuring the Default Mail Client on your Mobile Device

Although the Outlook for Mobile application is optimized for Microsoft 365, you may choose to configure your Stetson email account using your mobile device's default mail client. Please keep in mind that the configuration process may vary slightly from device to device, and you may be prompted to apply the security settings required by I.T. policy.  However, most devices use the following settings:

  • Type of Account: Office 365 or Exchange
  • Email Address: [email protected]
  • UserID/Username: [email protected]
  • Password: Your Stetson account password
  • Security settings: To configure the account, you may be prompted to apply the security settings required by our I.T. policy.
