These instructions are for devices that do not support a direct connection to Microsoft Exchange.
IMAP/POP will only synchronize email to your device. Your calendar, contacts, and task lists will not be synced to your device.
If you would like to use IMAP/POP please contact Computer Authorizations at auth@gvsu.edu to have your GVSU faculty/Staff account activated to use these protocols.

*IMAP - If your device has the option, we recommend that you set how many days email is locally stored. This will conserve space on your device
