Adding an Email Address in Outlook for Mac

With Microsoft's eventual retirement of plug-ins, ITS suggests using the Zoom Add-In for Outlook. If you're looking for alternative email services, there are many options available, including Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, ProtonMail, and more.

For Mason-owned and -managed computers, the Zoom desktop app is available via the Software Center (System Center Configuration Manager SCCM). Remember that you can also create a free email address using Apple's Mail service. These email addresses are free to create and use, and anyone can make a new one at any time by going to the email service.

When configuring Outlook with another email app, you may need server information. Note that we're talking about using email addresses here, not the Outlook mail application itself. The server information may change eventually, but for now it's current and works for email addresses.

If you're configuring Outlook with another email app, you'd likely need this server information:

* Outgoing SMTP server: port 587

Again, the Mail app on Mac should detect this information automatically and not require additional details. However, if you do need to put in manual information for any reason, it can be helpful to have it readily available.

The email servers and port numbers for IMAP, POP, SMTP, and outbound mail are as follows:

What are Mail Server Settings for Email Addresses?

The Mac Mail app should automatically detect the proper email server settings and not require any additional information. However, if you do need to provide mail servers or if you're using a different mail client aside from the Mail app, you may find the below information to be useful and relevant to you.

If you have an iPhone or iPad, you might want to add the email account to Mail for iOS and iPadOS too. While this is obviously focusing on adding an email address to Mail on Mac, you can delete an email account from Mail for Mac just as easily. If you have multiple email accounts configured on Mail for Mac, you might find it useful to set the default email account that gets used when sending emails from your Mac.

To add an email address to Mail on Mac:

1. Enter the name associated with the account, the email address, and the password, then click 'Sign In' to add the email account to Mail.

2. Select 'Other Mail Account…' then click Continue.

3. Pull down the 'Mail' menu and choose 'Add Account.'

4. Adding an email address for use on your Mac is a fairly simple process, similar to adding other new email accounts to Mail on Mac.

That's it! Your email address is now ready to use on your Mac.
