How to access and setup your City of Milton email account
How to access and setup your City of Milton email account.
**For the first time you access your city email account please do it from a desktop browser on a computer, because doing it from your phone first will not work correctly. **
- Go to https://login.microsoftonline.com/
- Login with your City email address and password. Your email will be firstname.lastname@miltonga.gov. Your password will be given to you by your board/committee liaison.
- During the process you will get a prompt saying your organization requires more information. You will be directed to steps to download an app to your cell phone called “Microsoft Authenticator”. The City uses the app for two-factor authentication which is required by our Cyber security insurance.
- Go to your device app store, for iPhone users the App Store and for Android users the Google Play store. The icon should look like this.
- Once you download it use the option on the screen to scan the QR code with the Authenticator app by opening the app, go to Verified IDs (at the bottom right) and hit the “Scan QR code” button.
- After scanning the QR code, finish out the prompts on the screen and you should be good to go.
- The only time you should have to reauthenticate with the app is if your password changes or if you haven’t logged in for a while to check your email.
- To setup your email on your phone just go to your app of your choice and select the option for Microsoft 365 or Outlook and follow the prompts.
- If you run into any issues with the setup or access to your email let your board/committee liaison know or email support@miltonga.gov and the IT support staff will assist you.
