Mailbox
Your ulyssis account includes an email address: username@ulyssis.org
. It is important you check your ulyssis mail regularly, because all important information will be sent to this address. You can check your e-mail using the webmail or an email client of your own.
Webmail
You can access your mail via a webinterface: https://webmail.ulyssis.org. Use your username and password to enter the website.
POP and IMAP access
You can access your ulyssis mail by POP or IMAP protocol. The configuration parameters are:
- server: mail.ulyssis.org
- username: your ULYSSIS username
- password: your ULYSSIS password

SMTP
ULYSSIS doesn't offer SMTP. Instead, you can use KULeuven's SMTP server:
- server: smtps.kuleuven.be
- port: 443
- username: your student id
- password: your KULeuven password
- security: SSL
Advanced
Your emails are stored within your account under ~/Maildir. These files can of course be read with a command line email client such as alpine or mutt.
Beyond that we also support sendmail style local delivery using .forward. More information is available in the official documentation of [Sendmail] and Postfix http://www.postfix.org/local.8.html. You can also use procmail on our services. A very detailed explenation on procmail is available on the Arch Linux wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Procmail
