Can I add my @uvic.ca email to Mac Mail
We recommend using a supported Outlook client for full functionality of your email account. You can connect to your UVic Microsoft 365 email account using the Mac Mail app, but Microsoft does not provide support for it. This means you'll miss out on some features and may experience service issues if you use it.
University Systems can only provide best effort support for clients who wish to use an unsupported mail client.
