Follow these steps to set up your Android device running Android 2.x to access your UCSD Exchange e-mail account.
Before you begin, you need:
- An Active Directory (AD) username and password. Your username is usually the first part of your UCSD e-mail address before the @ symbol. If you forgot your password, reset it.
- An Exchange account in the UCSD Campus Exchange Organization.
- The name of the Exchange server that hosts your Exchange mailbox.
- An Android device running Android 2.x.
- The Galaxy S3 doesn't accept passwords with spaces in them at this time. It is suggested that you remove the spaces from your password.
