Setup Student Email In Outlook

Help Desk Email Setup Guide

You will need to use these settings to configure your email for Outlook, Thunderbird or another desktop client.

  •    Server Type – IMAP
  •    Incoming – imap.ivytech.edu
  •    Incoming Port – 993, use SSL

This will allow you to receive email only. If you need to send mail you will need to use your own outgoing mail server.  For example, if you have a gmail account this is what you’ll do:

  • Check server requires authentication.
  • Enter your gmail username and password.
  • SMTP Server – smtp.gmail.com
  • Security Type – SSL
  • Server Port – 465

If you don’t have a Gmail account you can use the outgoing server from your Internet Service Provider.  They would be able to provide those settings to you.

Ivy Tech can provide these settings but we do not support the configuration of desktop clients.
