Adding your Account

  1. Open the Settings app.
    • If you have iOS 17.7 or earlier, scroll down and click the Mail app.
    • If you have iOS 18.0 or later, scroll to the bottom, and click Apps then Mail.
  2. In the ​​​​Mail section, click Mail Accounts. This should display all connected accounts.
  3. If your Chico State email is not displayed, choose Add Account. If your Chico State email is listed, see "Removing Exchange Account" below.
  4. Choose Microsoft Exchange from the account types listed.
  5. Enter your Chico State email address in the pop-up window.
    • In the description box, you can change the account's display name. By default, it will show "Exchange," but you can rename it to something like “Chico Email” or “Work Email” if preferred. 
  6. On the next pop-up, choose Sign In.
  7. You will be redirected to the Chico State login page. Enter your Chico State password, then hit Next.
  8. Approve the sign-in request in Duo Mobile when prompted.
