Email: IMAP/SMTP Client Settings
DoC has traditionally operated its own mail system separately to the rest of the College. Now, we are migrating our users' mailboxes to the College Email system, based on Exchange.
College Email Settings
If your email has been migrated to the College Email system then you should use these settings, in any IMAP-capable email client, eg. Thunderbird, Mac Mail, Outlook, create a separate email account:
Server |
icex.imperial.ac.uk |
Use SSL |
Yes |
IMAP port |
993 |
IMAP username |
your username |
IMAP password |
leave blank |
IMAP server directory |
leave blank |
Folder subscription |
Auto-subscribe |
Server |
smtp.cc.ic.ac.uk |
Encryption |
TLS |
SMTP authentication |
Yes |
SMTP port |
587 |
SMTP username |
your username |
SMTP password |
leave blank |
DoC Email Settings
If your email has not yet been migrated, use these settings, in any IMAP-capable email client, eg. Thunderbird, Mac Mail, Outlook. Note that we automatically customize Thunderbird on both Linux and Windows with these settings on DoC-supported machines:
Server |
imap.doc.ic.ac.uk |
Use SSL |
Yes |
IMAP port |
993 |
IMAP username |
your username |
IMAP password |
leave blank |
IMAP server directory |
~/IMAP |
Folder subscription |
Auto-subscribe |
We recommend using SMTP authentication with TLS enabled. Within DoC, unauthenticated SMTP to port 25 is permitted. Outside DoC, port 587 can be used to connect with TLS and authentication if port 25 is blocked. For simplicity, always use port 587.
