Your ulyssis account includes an email address: username@ulyssis.org. It is important you check your ulyssis mailbox regularly, because all important information will be sent to this address. You can check your e-mail using webmail or an email client of your own. It is also possible to configure your email address in UCC to automatically forward all correspondence to another address.

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.

We support sendmail style local delivery using .forward. More information is available in the official documentation of Sendmail and Postfix.

You can also use procmail on our servers. A very detailed explanation on procmail is available on the ArchWiki.
