How to set mail account on Outlook Express to read... mail (for CSA/CSD users)
How to set mail account on Outlook Express to read and send mail (for CSA/CSD users) Your CSA/CSD account is also a mail service that enables you to get mail sent to [email protected] , read and save this mail using IMAP or POP3 services, and send mail. This doc explains, in details, how to set Outlook Express account for reading/sending mail from your CS account. If you are using other mail client, like Thunderbird, the setup is similar. Reading mail using IMAP and POP3 services (which are accessible from anywhere, including from outside the Technion): IMAP service enables you to access your Inbox on the server, and other mail folders found in your CSA/CSD homedir for read/delete/copy/move/change. All operations are done on your folders on the server. Please notice that the mail on the server is backed-up regularly. POP3 service enables you to read and copy mail from your Inbox on the server to your local Inbox found on your PC. This is useful if your PC is not connected constantly to the server and you want to read your Inbox when your PC is offline. Please notice: o When you copy your Inbox mail to your local Inbox, you can leave a copy on the server or not. Please make sure you choose the right option, otherwise you may loose mail. Sending mail from your CSA/CSD account is done using mailhost.cs.technion.ac.il server if you are connected to the Computer Science network (your office wall port in CS or CS modem service). If you are not connected to CS network inside the Technion, you should use the outgoing mail server (SMTP) of the Technion (TX.technion.ac.il).
