BlueM@il: Getting Started with Email


Getting Started

Ways to Access BlueM@il

DePaul employees have several options for accessing their BlueM@il (username@depaul.edu): the Outlook desktop app, the Outlook web app, or through an email app on a smartphone or other mobile device.

Should I use the Outlook Classic version or the New Outlook version with my BlueM@il?

The Classic version of Outlook will provide the best functionality for BlueM@il email accounts and resource email accounts. This recommendation may change in the future. DePaul students, faculty, and staff are welcome to use New Outlook, however you may be asked to revert back to Classic Outlook if you have issues.

Spam Control

If you wish to block certain emails from reaching your Inbox and have them delivered to your Junk Email folder instead, you may add them to your Blocked Senders list. Note: Mac users will need to follow the instructions to Add Safe Senders in Outlook on the Web.

Watch out for Phishing Emails!

Phishing is an email fraud method in which the perpetrator sends out legitimate-looking email in an attempt to gather personal and financial information from recipients. Typically, the messages appear to come from well known and trustworthy websites.
