What to Expect After Migration

If you use the Microsoft Outlook software on your PC once the migration is complete you will notice a message that says your Microsoft Exchange administrator has made changes. You will be asked to sign out and sign back in. This is a normal part of the process. You are signing in to the new Microsoft 365 cloud account. If have been using Microsoft Outlook on your PC you will not notice any changes to the appearance of the software.

Changes to Webmail

If you were using webmail.occc.edu you will now go to outlook.com. Going to webmail.occc.edu will provide a link to outlook.com. You will need to sign in with your username/email address and password as usual. Outlook.com appears almost identical to the old webmail site.
