Logging in for the first time

Logging in with a PC/Laptop

You should have received login details:

• An email address (scouting-name@1stchelmsford.org.uk) or (firstname.surname@1stchelmsford.org.uk) depending on your role.
• A temporary password (generally a string of random characters)

1) Visit https://mail.1stchelmsford.org.uk

2) Enter the email address until the @ sign (it is auto-filled in), and click enter
e.g: for chuck.norris@1stchelmsford.org.uk, only enter chuck.norris

3) After clicking next, enter your temporary password then click next again

4) You'll then need to agree to the terms and set a new password

5) At the next step, you can choose to create a passkey. This allows you to log-in with the fingerprint, password, or PIN on your device rather than entering your password. This is optional.

6) You will need to set up two-step verification. You can choose whether to use a passkey (not recommended as the option), an authenticator app, or a phone number.
You must do this to avoid getting locked out.
Click on the arrows next to the methods to choose which one. You can always set up more later.

7) Once you have done this, you can then add a recovery phone if you'd like, but also manage account settings from the menu in the top left with your profile picture.
