Configuring NTU Mail on MS Outlook

7 comments - Post a comment

This post serves as a guide to all NTU students who want to use their NTU Mail on Microsoft Outlook.

1) Launch MS Outlook

2) Add a new account

3) Select "Microsoft Exchange Server" (Screen 1)













(Screen 1)

4) Enter "MAIL24.student.main.ntu.edu.sg" as the Exchange Server" (Screen 2)

5) ALL NTU Student start with a "#" in front of the name. So if you were to email me, you would like "#YEO GUO LIN COLLIN" without the quotes. So under "User Name", you would like "#" followed by your name and click "Check Name" in order to verify.

Thats it. You can use your NTU mail with your MS Outlook.

Additional: To access the Public Folder, click on the Folder Icon at the bottom of the left panel. (Screen 3)

Note: Unless you install this VPN program, you would not be able to access the email if you are not connected to the school network, including NTU Wireless Network. Basically, VPN allows you to use the Internet to connect to the school internal network or LAN.

Are you sure you can setup NTU email other than Outlook?? Please get your facts right before publicly posting your settings. Exchange works only with Outlook and Entourage. No outlook express or any other email clients.

Very good post, specially for people who has problem connecting to exchange server from off campus. VPN connection works off-campus.

You dont need VPN anymore. use the webmail.ntu.edu.sg server instead.. and u can connect to exchange via outlook without VPN.
