Help & Setup

Setting up Mac Mail

The first time you open Mail, it automatically sets up email accounts for you using the information from the .Mac pane of System Preferences and the Mail Setup Assistant. If no information is found, Mail guides you through the process of setting up a new account. You can create additional accounts at any time.

To add an account:

1. Choose File > Add Account
   
   
2. Choose your account type, such as POP or IMAP, from the Account Type pop-up menu and enter the information, based on your account type. If you aren't sure about some of the fields, check with your Internet service provider (ISP) or mail account provider.
   
   
• General information: Enter a description of the account
  
  
• Incoming Mail Server: ultraexchange.com.au
  
  
• Outgoing Mail Server: ultraexchange.com.au
  
  
• Username: Your email
  
  
• Password: Your Email Exchange password
  

An Exchange account allows you to connect to your Exchange server via IMAP, and if you enter text in the Outlook Web Access Server field, Mail filters non-email related content from the server.
