Adding zmail on Samsung Galaxy S3 (1 Viewer)

[icecreammix]

I recently changed to the S3 and I'm having trouble adding my zmail. I've followed the instructions from https://www.it.unsw.edu.au/staff/email/exchange/android4.html but it still doesn't work.

Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

I've been trying to do the same thing on my ipad 3rd gen but it never worked. The instructions are either wrong or confusing.

I've been trying to do the same thing on my ipad 3rd gen but it never worked. The instructions are either wrong or confusing.

There's a post here by skyhawkmatthew that has instruction to set up on iDevices:

"1. Open Settings > Mail, contacts, calendars and hit 'Add Account', then Exchange.

2. Fill in both the email address AND username field with your address in the format: z1234567@zmail.unsw.edu.au

3. Your password is NOT your zpass. Go to zmail.unsw.edu.au/getpass and enter your zpass credentials to get a separate, auto generated password that works for Exchange/IMAP.

4. Put this new password in the password field, hit Next. It'll verify for a bit, then a server field will appear, filled in with 'pod51000.outlook.com'. Hit next again, it'll verify again, then everything will get ticks next to it!

5. Turn off calendars, contacts and reminders as they're not necessary (no, there isn't a global UNSW contacts system accessible through this as far as I can tell). Hit next/finish. You're done!

Of course, this works on the iPad as well."

I managed to get it to work! Thanks for the contributions.
If anyone is wondering, i added the account as an email account instead of Microsoft Exchange account. For the email it's yourstudentnumber@zmail.unsw.edu.au and the password is obtained at zmail.unsw.edu.au/getpass (it's not your zpass).
