4. It will then prompt you to add an initial account. By default it will have ‘Email account’ selected, so just click Next to continue.

5. Enter your full name in the ‘Your Name’ field, and enter in your full email address in the ‘Email Address’ field. Make sure to set it as mail.coe.fsu.edu and not just coe.fsu.edu. Click Next to continue.

6. Change the mail server type to IMAP, and set your incoming mail server to mail.coe.fsu.edu. Click Next to continue.
