• Operation System: Microsoft Windows 7 or a newer Windows version
• E-Mail Client: Mozilla Thunderbird 45 or newer
• You own an e-mail account in the Exchange System of the Jade University

During the first start after installation, the assistant for the set-up of the Exchange account starts. Select the point Überspringen und meine existierende E-Mail-Adresse verwenden (ENG: „Skip and use existing e-mail-address“).

After having made the respective selection on the first page, basic information are requested for the e-mail account that is being set up.

To begin, type in your name and the e-mail-address of your Exchange account into the according input boxes.

Type in your password, which you use to log into your Exchange account.

After input / confirmation (Button: Weiter [ENG: „Next“]) of the information, the assistant searches online for the server settings of the e-mail account.

The assistant is not capable of recognising all settings correctly. This is why you need to correct them by clicking on the button Manuell bearbeiten (ENG: „Edit manually“).

The following details are to be adapted accordingly:

1. Inbox-Server:
   • Type: IMAP
   • Server-Address: mail.jade-hs.de
   • Port: 143
   • SSL: STARTTLS
   • Authentification: Password, normal
     
     
2. Outbox-Server:

   • Authentification: Password, normal
     
     
3. Username (PC-login) in the form loginname@hs-woe.de (e.g. ma1234@hs-woe.de)

After having confirmed these with Fertig (ENG: „Done“), Thunderbird opens the set up e-mail account.
