Exchange  |  POP/IMAP mailbox  |  OWA-only mailbox  |  How To Set Up Additional Mailbox

Note: Outlook for Android® will only sync emails for the last 30 days or 1000 items per folder. At the moment this limit is set by design and cannot be changed.

Exchange mailbox

  1. Enable ActiveSync on the mailbox. By default this is activated. If you experience issues, please contact your company's administrator if they have one. If not, call Southeastern Business Solutions for support.
  2. Open Outlook App, enter your full email address and click Continue.
  3. The device will try to configure the profile automatically using Autodiscover Record.
    If the server address can’t be determined, you will be asked to choose Account Type (then proceed to step 4 of these instructions) or enter the configuration settings manually (it should say "Connect Exchange" - then proceed to step 5 of these instructions, if it says Connect to something else, follow the steps in step 4 note).
    Note: if your mailbox used to be hosted with Microsoft 365 before, you might not be prompted for Account type but instead be prompted for 365 password. In this case, contact your previous email provider to purge your tenant on Microsoft's side (after tenant deletion it's kept on Microsoft servers for 90 more days).
  4. Select Exchange as your account type.
    Note: if Exchange is not shown as an account type, proceed as follows:
    1. Select an available account type (for example, IMAP).
    2. Tap Continue.
    3. Tap the “?” icon.
    4. Tap “Change account type”.
    5. Select “Exchange”.
