Access Adler Email from your Personal Computer

These instructions specifically apply to personally-owned computers. For instructions on adding a mailbox on your Adler computer, see this Adler knowledge base article instead


Install the Microsoft Office suite

Installing Office is free, as long as you log into your Adler work/school account (you'll be prompted after install, when you first open an Office application)

Download the 64-bit Office suite here


Alternative: Use the Mail App on a Mac Computer

Microsoft Office can be installed on your Mac. If you prefer the Mail app that came pre-installed on your Mac, see this article on the Apple website to get your Adler email connected.

Note: choose Exchange as the mail account provider


Windows/Mac: Log into Microsoft Outlook

  1. After installing Microsoft Office, open the Outlook application
  2. Continue through first-time setup and sign into your Adler email account
    (Not being asked to add an email account? Go to the File tab at the top-left of the window and choose Add Account near the top)
  3. If prompted, your Adler email is hosted through Exchange
  4. Press finish, at which point your emails will begin downloading

Depending on how many total emails you have, it may take up to an hour before they're all downloaded
