Live@edu Instructions for MSTC
Students Only
On August 1, 2011, MSTC introduced Microsoft Live@edu at our school for students. This
means that students who are either on campus or off campus will need to log onto Live@edu
using the URL: http://my.mstc.edu to gain access to their email. For detailed instructions on
accessing Live@edu for the first time from either on campus or off campus, please see the
instructions below.
NEW: For more information and features on Live@edu, please visit: http://mstc.edu/email.

NEW: All emails and folders within your MSTC mailbox, with the exception of the Junk
and Deleted folders, were automatically migrated to your new Live@edu email account
on August 1, 2011. No action on your part is necessary. NOTE: The following items were
not transferred to your new Live@edu account: calendar, contacts, tasks, Junk folder,
and Deleted folder!

After August 1, 2011, you will not be able to use the Outlook Program on MSTC
computers to view your email. You will need to go to http://my.mstc.edu and login to
access your email.

Your Live@edu password and MSTC network account password are synchronized. When
you change your MSTC network account password for any reason, your Live@edu email
password will automatically be changed as well.
