How to Configure Exchange on an Android Device

This procedure is applicable for many Android devices running Android 4.4 or higher.  Screenshots were taken from a Google Nexus 4.  Other devices will be similar.

To setup an Exchange email account on a Android device, perform the following:

1.  From the home screen, tap the App drawer > Settings > Accounts > Add Account.
  ( Note: On a Galaxy S8, Settings > Accounts > Accounts > Add Account. )

2.  Tap Corporate, if you don't have Corporate then tap Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync.

3.  Enter the email address and tap Next or the forward button.
 (Note: On some devices the email address and password may appear on the same screen. )

4.  Enter the account password and tap the forward button.

5.  The device will attempt to retrieve the account settings automatically. You will most likely NOT see this screen and can skip to the next step.
