Client configuration for Office 365 accounts

Client configurations for Office 365 accounts can be found on Office.com. Your email address will be youruserid@uwaterloo.ca; your userid will be youruserid and your password will be your WatIAM password.

Client configuration for Connect (Exchange) accounts

Connect email was migrated to Office 365 in Fall 2020. Adding a Connect account to a phone or email client usually happened automatically. Appropriate settings are shown below:

Type of account:    (Microsoft) Exchange
Name:    Your name (e.g. Joe Smith)
Email address:    yourWatIAMuserid@uwaterloo.ca
Userid:   yourWatIAMuserid
Password:    YourWatIAMpassword
Server:   connect.uwaterloo.ca

For assistance with Connect, please contact the Science Computing Helpdesk.
