Mail Notes
- SMTP (outgoing) on port 587 with TLS Encryption and Authentication is
recommended for people configuring all client (MUA) computers which
relay traffic through Lehigh. For reading mail, SSL IMAP on port 993 is preferred.
If you are using Thunderbird or Mozilla SeaMonkey, follow these configuration instructions.
For Outlook, e-mail accounts, click the "More Settings" link and then on the Advanced tab select "This server requires SSL" for both incoming and outgoing. On the Outgoing tab check the requires authentication box.
For Palm PDA's with e-mail follow these configuration instructions.
- Clam Antivirus is now at version 0.97.5 and scanning all mail, both incoming and outgoing. Additional anti-phishing and scam signatures from Sanesecurity.com are also installed.
- Spamassassin 3.3.1 is installed and tagging messages as SPAM. You can report spam messages to the FTC or by email to spam@uce.gov. Note - When reporting a spam message be sure to forward it with all headers (such as using the "as attachment" option in thunderbird).
- Mail to addresses identified as a phishing site are automatically blocked, and the message "This address has been blocked due to phishing" is displayed. If you've received a phishing message and did respond with your password, please go to the account page and change your password, so the phisher's can't use it.
Because we have quotas on incoming mailboxes and many external
servers have limits on e-mail, please use
a dropbox, such as one of
these (in no particular order)
for transfering large
files (over 20 MB).
For sharing collections of photos,
a free service such as Google Plus or Yahoo flickr
may be what you need.
For collaboration, you may want to use google docs, which you can access with your lehigh accounts via http://www.lehigh.edu/google.
