Microsoft change affecting older mail apps

Last updated: Fri Feb 27 16:32

Due to a Microsoft change, mobile devices and mobile mail apps running outdated software will no longer be able to access UofG emails or calendars from Sunday 1 March. 

This may affect staff and students using out of date apps including Gmail, Samsung Email and Thunderbird.

If you are affected, please either:

  • Install Outlook onto your mobile device;
  • Update your mobile device and mail app; or
  • Access your email through the web browser on your mobile device, using Webmail
For more information and instructions on how to install Outlook on an Android device, visit Microsoft Support: Set up Microsoft 365 or Office apps and email on Android.

Please note: this will only affect mobile devices. Apps on laptops or computers will not be affected. 

More information about accessing UofG email, including a link to Webmail, is available on the UofG email webpage.

We apologise for the short notice.
