E-Mail Clients Currently Recommended For Use With Mail@umd

The following e-mail clients work with the Mail@umd e-mail system and are supported by the Office of Information Technology (OIT):

  • Outlook Express 6.x and Windows Mail for Vista
  • Outlook 2000, Outlook XP, and Outlook 2003
  • Entourage 2004
  • Mail (for OS X)
  • Pine (WAM & Glue Unix)
  • Thunderbird 2.x
  • SeaMonkey 1.1.x

Basic documentation on how to configure these e-mail clients and use them to manage your e-mail on the Mail@umd system is available in the e-mail section of the OIT Help Desk website.

While you are welcome to use other e-mail clients to access your Mail@umd account, OIT cannot provide support for any problems you may encounter when using a non-supported client. Keep in mind that there are some older e-mail clients, such as Simeon and Execmail, that do not support authenticated SMTP, a key feature of Mail@umd, and, therefore, will not work with the Mail@umd system.
