5. Fill in the e-mail address you want to send from and your KU Leuven account password.
6. Check Manually configure account settings (POP, IMAP, or send-only account) (Dutch: Accountinstellingen (POP-/IMAP-account of account voor alleen verzenden) handmatig configureren).
7. Click OK and fill in the following SMTP information (https://admin.kuleuven.be/icts/services/email/begrippen):
   • User name: your KU Leuven intranet userid r or u number e.g. r0123456
   • Choose your connection type: SMTP send-only connection settings
   • Outgoing (SMTP) server: smtps.kuleuven.be
   • Outgoing server port: 465
8. Optionally: Enter a Display name, the recipient will see this name instead of or next to your email address.
9. Press on OK.

You can now send emails from this email address.
