IMAP
間眅埶AV Mail has two fully supported desktop applications, Outlook 2016 for PC and Mac. For optimal experience with Outlook desktop applications, we recommend connecting using the native Exchange Protocols (EWS or MAPI).
Any other third party desktop applications, such as Apple Mail and Thunderbird, will be partially supported.
Setup Information
IMAP with the Outlook 2016 desktop applications are fully supported at 間眅埶AV. Any IMAP connections with third party desktop applications will be partially supported. Individual departments may support desktop applications or mobile devices for their faculty and staff.
Using the Outlook Web App (OWA) before setting up a desktop application is strongly recommended, as it requires the least amount of setup to use. You may also opt to use the web application interchangeably with a desktop application.

Always be aware of when and where your 間眅埶AV credentials (i.e., 間眅埶AV computing ID and password) are being stored. Third party email applications (such as Thunderbird and Apple Mail) or services like Gmail store your 間眅埶AV credentials when used to check your 間眅埶AV email via IMAP. Make sure that your 間眅埶AV credentials are only stored on a computer or site that you trust.
To ensure email password security, configuring your email application to use SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is required.
When your email application is configured to use SSL, it will encrypt all traffic between the application and server so that your password cannot be easily intercepted by unauthorized individuals.
