Updating Email Clients for Additional Security

  • On November 19 and December 1, the Information Technology Department will be increasing the security of the UCCS email system to combat the increase in spam, viruses, and bogus email. These changes may require changes to the email configuration on your computer to allow you to continue to receive and send email.
  • Off-campus access will be effected on November 19. You will continue to receive email (until December 1), but you may not be able to send email unless you make the changes listed below.
  • As of December 1, on-campus and off-campus email will be effected. To receive or send email, you need to make the changes listed below.
  • Exceptions: If you use any of the following to access your email, you do NOT have to make any changes.
    • Webmail
    • Microsoft Outlook Exchange (username@ufp.uccs.edu)
    • EAS email (username@eas.uccs.edu)
  • The following email configurations MUST be changed. Click on the link below for instructions.
  • Due to the new email security, Netscape will no longer work with UCCS email beginning December 1 (November 19 off-campus). Suggest Netscape users switch to Thunderbird as it's also Mozilla-based. Full instructions are shown at the link below.
