Office 365 transition
Beginning January 2, 2017, email service will be transitioning to Office 365 for Saint Leo University employees. This transition will provide several benefits, including:
- Expanded inbox storage space, up to 50 GB
- OneDrive access with 1 TB of storage space
- Access to install full Office applications on up to 5 devices
- Online versions of Office
Access Point Changes
Outlook
Microsoft Outlook will continue to function, but each workstation or device may require a reboot to fully sync.
Note: You may be prompted for credentials when starting up Outlook for the first time. In this case, please use first.last@saintleo.edu and your AD/portal password.
Portal Access
The email portlet available via the Saint Leo University portal landing page will continue to function as usual.
Device Access
If you are an iPhone user, and you have connected your saintleo.edu email address to your iOS Email Client, then you MUST change your username after the migration has completed. For any iOS devices that cannot connect after migration, check your mail settings and ensure that your username is first.last@saintleo.edu. This will resolve the iOS connection issues you may encounter.
