In the following, the word \"mailbox\" relates to the sum of these features, which are bundled into the user's \"mailbox\".<\/p>\n
Every JACOBS university member with an active CampusNet account and a \"@jacobs-university.de\" email address has access to JACOBS Email.<\/p>\n
Account Information<\/p>\n
Access to the mailbox, including email, calendar, contacts, etc. is with the CampusNet username and password, also known as JACOBS user account.<\/p>\n
Please note that the email address is different from the username. The email address has a dot in it, the username doesn't.<\/p>\n
Please check with the CampusNet team to deal with lost passwords.<\/p>\n
There is world-wide web access via:<\/p>\n
Vacation messages can be set either within Outlook connected to Exchange, or by using the web interface.<\/p>\n
It is possible to set an interval for the message, so can be used way before being away.<\/p>\n
As Jacobs Email is accessible world-wide, vacation messages can also be set while off campus.<\/p>\n
The recommended access way is to use an English-language version of Microsoft Outlook as an email client, but any other client will work.<\/p>\n
AutoDiscover is available, making manual configuration usually unnecessary.<\/p>\n
If you are logged in to a JACOBS computer while starting Outlook the first time, it automatically sets up email based on your JACOBS login without any manual configuration requirement.<\/p>\n
To manually configure an Exchange connection, which is the recommended connection type,use<\/p>\n
Exchange Server<\/p>\n
exchange.jacobs-university.de<\/p>\n
This connection type is sometimes called EWS.<\/p>\n
To manually configure any other applicable email client, use the following information:<\/p>\n
IMAP4 & IMAP4S<\/p>\n
exchange.jacobs-university.de<\/p>\n
POP3 & POP3S<\/p>\n
exchange.jacobs-university.de<\/p>\n
SMTP<\/p>\n
exchange.jacobs-university.de<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
For security reasons, only the secure variants should be used,i.e. SSL for incoming and TLS for outgoing emails.For convenience, the unsecured protocols are still accepted, but strongly discouraged.<\/p>\n
If manually configuring Outlook access to Exchange, XMLRPC over HTTPS is the recommend setting. Please refrain from using MAPI access, which is deprecated.<\/p>\n
The system requires authentication using TLS before sending!<\/p>\n
Depending on the client used, not all features are available.<\/p>\n
Tip: the JACOBS user name has NO dot in it! If you are unsure regarding user name vs. email address, please see JACOBS user namefor details.<\/p>\n
It is possible to grant access to mailbox information to other JACOBS domain users.<\/p>\n
By default, only the user has access to his\/her mailbox, though the free\/busy information, without further details, is available to any other JACOBS domain user.<\/p>\n
Access to information can be shared within the JACOBS domain community by standard Windows domain access permission mechanisms.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
