To set up an email account, you must have a valid user account (BA-Number + corresponding password).
These instructions apply to Android version 13.0 and later; we cannot provide support for earlier versions of Android. The setup process and screenshots for other Android versions may therefore differ from the procedure described here. If you are unsure about the setup, please make only the settings listed below and leave other options as they are set by default on your system.
These instructions were created using the Gmail app. The process may vary for other email apps.
