Physics Email accounts

For most users, the best way to use your Physics email account is with a program such as Thunderbird to access your mail using our IMAP server.

You can also use your mail account by logging in to the Unix system interactively and running one of the available mail programs, such as pine.

Finally, you can access your mail through our webmail system. The webmail system also lets you control many features of your email account, such as changing your password, or mail forwarding.

• Mail forwarding & Vacations
• Organizing mail with folders
• Spam control
• Offline access to messages
• Shared mailboxes
