Access Student/Alumni Email on a Mobile Device or Email Software

(This is for Students/Alumni. If you are faculty/staff, see the faculty/staff email config.)

NOTE: Configuring another email client or mobile device to check student email is totally optional - Student email may be accessed from any computer with an internet connection on the web at http://mail.huskies.bloomu.edu/ without any additional setup or configuration. If you still want to access your email account from email software or a mobile device, these options are also available to you.

Mobile Device or Email Software configuration information

  • Virtually every email client you can use will configure itself once you enter your username and password. Be sure to enter your full email address, i.e. abc12345@huskies.bloomu.edu OR abc12345@alumni.bloomu.edu, as your username.
  • For specific email client instructions and walkthroughs, please see below.
  • NOTE: Beginning in the Spring 2020 semester, the legacy email protocols of POP, IMAP, and Authenticated SMTP are no longer supported.

Mobile devices (i.e. SmartPhones/Tablets)

Exchange ActiveSync

All mobile devices support Exchange ActiveSync for very good mobile support through native Email apps or through the downloadable Microsoft Outlook App. Keep in mind Exchange ActiveSync connects directly to the server mailbox, so if you delete messages, they will also be deleted in Webmail and vice versa.
