Apple Mail (Big Sur)

In November 2020, Apple released the Big Sur update, according to themselves the biggest change to the operating system since MacOS was launched almost 20 years ago.

In this guide, we quickly go through everything that is required for you to be up and running with your email within a few minutes.

Start by launching the Mail program, either down from your dock menu, by clicking launchpad in your dock menu and looking for the program, or by just searching using Spotlight (the magnifying glass in the top right of your desktop).

Once you have started the program, click on Mail in the menu at the top left of your desktop, and select Add Account…

In the new box, select the option Other Mail account… which you will find at the bottom, and then click Continue.

In the next box, you enter your name, your email address and the associated password. Click on Log in.

The program will now say that it was not possible to verify the data and you therefore need to manually fill in the following data:

Username: your email address
Server, incoming email: mailcluster.loopia.se
Server, outgoing email: mailcluster.loopia.se

When you have filled in the information as above, click on Log in.

In the box that appears, uncheck the option for Notes and only keep the check mark for Mail.

Now you are done and can start using your email through your email program!
