Installation

To set up an email account, you need to have Microsoft Outlook installed on your computer. Outlook is included in the Microsoft Office 365 software package.

For computers managed by Metropolia, Microsoft Office 365 is already pre-installed. If it's missing, do not install it yourself. Contact Helpdesk if necessary. For home computers, you can install Microsoft Office 365 by following the download and installation instructions.

When you start Outlook for the first time, you can add your Metropolia email account directly by following the instructions below (Email Account Setup).
