DCS runs their own systems for CS students, and occasionally for engineers: http://www.cdf.toronto.edu/ This is very different and totally separate from the general systems that U of T runs. About 4 or 5 years back, U of T deprecated their only UTORmail system, which they ran internally, for "UTMail+", which is Microsoft. They were forcing people to migrate, first students, then clubs, not sure if/when staff accounts were forced over.

I use the UTMail+ IMAP/SMTP servers with no problem from Icedove/Thunderbird... and I've been doing this for a decade, through the transition from UTORmail to UTMail+... though I've never tried from Postfix. With UTMail+, my SMTP server is pod51008.outlook.com (or something like that). With UTORmail, it was smtp.utoronto.ca or something with extra numbers. (I never used CDF SMTP... I just had my CDF account forward mail to my UTORmail account...) I guess it would help to know what system (or SMTP server) in particular you're using? --- Talk Mailing List [email protected] http://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
