This assumes you are running a recent version of MacOS (High Sierra 10.13, Mojave 10.14, Catalina 10.15 or higher).  Mail will NOT WORK on versions lower than High Sierra 10.13.

If you have Mac Mail (aka Mail.app) connected to Exchange do the following:

click Mail - Preferences

click Accounts

click account corresponding to Canisius Exchange

click Server Settings

change User Name to canisius\username

uncheck Automatically manage connection settings

change the first part of Internal and External URL from https://exchange. to https://outlook.

click Save

REBOOT!!!!  This is needed to clear some background processes used by Mail that do not get their settings updated until a reboot is done.

Image RemovedIf you have been notified that your email account has been migrated by ITS from exchange hybrid, to Canisius Exchange online, a couple of changes are required to send/receive email on your apple device.

For the best experience, fastest set-up, and to take advantage of all that MS exchange has to offer, we highly recommend downloading the Outlook app for macOS from the Mac App Store

To set up on your apple device using the Mail App:

Removing your old email settings from the Mail app

  1. Go to “System Preferences” on your Mac and scroll down on the left menu to find and select “Internet Accounts”
