First a word on security

The most common ways of phishing for passwords is the suggestion in an email that you need to upgrade, clean out, confirm or otherwise login to page to access your emails. You will get *a lot* of these but unless Mat specifically tells you (probably on slack) to change any thing then just don't. And if you are ever ever unsure pick up the phone and ask Mat or another colleague.

Krystal's webmail server

TLDR;

type you're email and password in there.

if its another mail client that asks for an imap/smtp its mail.thebristolcable.org

Full webmail description

The page to access webmail interface is at:

You are then sent to this page:

You want to press the left one and if that don't work press the right one, the firewall one is basically only useful in hotels and on public wifi's when the first doesn't work.

You then will have various options for showing you setup info, setting up autoresponders for holidays etc.

you probably 97% of the time wanna click the blue open button

Exporting/importing your address book

If you have made use of the address book then you can export that by going to the old round cube and click contacts:

then press this green down arrow and save the contacts vcf file.

Then you get a dialogue box that has a few options but you can just click browse then import

Then hopefully you have email addresses.

Adding your name and signature to emails

To change what in the jargon is called your identity first click here:

Then click your email address on the left:

You can then add in a display name and organisation, this can be anything you like but probably useful to make it your name.

You can add in your signature into the box below. then once you press save you have your emails set up.

Password change

Login with your email address like usual then you have an option to set a password.

If you get stuck Mat can change your password too.
