The following guide explains how to configure Outlook 2016 for Mac.
When you open Outlook for the first time, the start wizard appears automatically to help you configure your e-mail account. Enter your university email address and click “Next“.

In the next window you have to enter your user data. Please note that you must enter “@student.uni-ak.ac.at” as a student and “@uni-ak.ac.at” as an employee. Enter your p-, s-, x-, u-, m- or b- number as the username and your password below.
Please also make sure that the incoming and outgoing mail servers are set up as shown in the screenshot.

Click on “Add Account“.
Then you have the choice to add another account or to complete the setup with a click on “Done”.

To set up an account without the start wizard, click on “Tools” and then on “Accounts …“

In the new window you will now see the data of your existing account. To add a new account you have to click on the “+” symbol at the bottom left and then on “New account …“

You can then set up another account as at the beginning of this guide.
