Upcoming changes may impact your access to University email and calendars

Outlook is the University鈥檚 supported email application for staff and students to access their email and calendars. This includes Outlook on the web, in addition to the Outlook desktop and the Outlook mobile application.

Upcoming Microsoft changes 

As of October 2026, Microsoft are introducing changes to their email service which will restrict the functionality available to some third-party and non-Microsoft native email applications, including Apple Mail (the native Mail app on macOS and iOS).  

These applications may experience reduced functionality or may cease to work when accessing University mailboxes.  

Action required  

While these applications may currently function, compatibility cannot be guaranteed going forward. 

Therefore, we recommend only using the supported Outlook applications: Outlook on the web, Outlook desktop and the Outlook mobile application. 

Can I get further information and support? 

Further information can be found on the IT Services website, as well as instructions for setting up Outlook on your mobile device.
