Fortunately, most e-mail clients have Office 365 or Exchange support built in. Many will recognise your login address and forward you to the login portal where you can choose to log in with Feide. Then everything should work right away.

For other apps, you may need to enter some information manually:

• E-mail address and username: enter your login address, [username]@egms.no
• Password: the password for your Kristiania University College account. Forgotten your password?
• Server: outlook.office365.com

If you still can’t add the e-mail account to your client then you can contact us.
