All about using the Mac in NTU, and hopefully an iPhone in the near future. General stuff for the general population as well as for the Computer Science nerds.

Exchange 2007 Nirvana

So by now, most students would have known that NTU is moving to Live@Edu for all school related emails. Bad news is that its Microsoft, good news is that it supports Exchange 2007.

This means you can add your Live@Edu account to Mail.app, Address Book and iCal.

For those who are lazy to read through the configuration guide, here is a quickstart.

1. Check that you are running Snow Leopard (10.6). Remember, this only works if you are using Snow Leopard.
2. Open Mail.app
3. Go to Preferences. (Cmd + ,)
4. Make sure you are in the Accounts tab.
5. Click the + button
6. Fill in the details as follows,
Full Name: «Your Full Name or whatever Name you want»
Email Address: «username»@e.ntu.edu.sg
Password: «Live@Edu Password»
7. Click Next and let them do their autodetection thing.
8. Agree to having Mail setup Address Book and iCal too.
9. Done!
