How to configure Entourage
in OS X

To configure the Entourage email client on Mac OS X to access your SCS email account, take the following steps:

Note: If you are using Entourage for the first time, or if no email accounts have been configured yet, Entourage automatically opens to the Setup Assistant screen. In that case, you can skip the first two steps below.

• Open Entourage and click on the "Tools" menu, then select "Accounts"
• Click the "New" button at the top left of the accounts window to open the "Setup Assistant" dialog. Enter your name and click the right arrow at the bottom to continue.
• Enter the information as you see it in the following example. Enter your own SCS email address where you see "jsmith+@cs.cmu.edu". Make sure you add the + after your username in your email address. When you're done, click the right arrow to continue.
• 
  
  
  
  
  
  
• On the next screen configure your incoming and outgoing mail servers. Be sure to select "IMAP" from the "incoming mail server" pop-up menu, then enter the information as you see it in the following screen shot. Click the right arrow when you are ready.
• 
  
  
  
  
  
• In the next window, enter your SCS username and MAIL password as seen in the example below, then click the right arrow to continue. Note: Your MAIL password is a special password that is used only when checking mail. If you do not have a mail password or aren't sure, contact the Help Desk at 8-4231.
• 
  
  
  
  
  
• In the next window, you may choose a name for your account. You can name your account anything you like, but something descriptive like "SCS email" might be appropriate. Click "Finish" when you are ready.
• Finally, you should see a window like the one below which summarizes your account information. Check the information in your window against the screen shot below and use the "go back" button in your window to fix any typos or omissions. Click "Finish".
  

  That's it!

  Congratulations! You've successfully configured the Entourage email client to read your SCS email. If you encounter any errors or if you have any further questions, contact the SCS Help Desk at help@cs.cmu.edu or on the phone at 8-4231.
