UP Webmail can also be accessed using a mail client like Thunderbird. Below is configuration information on the mail client setup.

Thunderbird

1. Open Thunderbird if it's already installed.[1] If not, download Thunderbird or another compatible mail client.

2. Click on File | New | Account... and type in mail.up.edu.ph

3. Select IMAP as your type of incoming server

4. Set your Server Settings to the ff:

    Server Name: smicro02.up.edu.ph
    Port: 143
    Security Settings: Never
    User Name: <your UP Webmail login name>

5. Set your Outgoing Server (SMTP) to the ff:

     (if inside Dilnet)
     Server Name: smtp.up.edu.ph
     Port: 25
     Secure Connection: TLS (if available)
    If outside Dilnet, use your ISP's smtp server. Call your ISP if you don't know what it is. An alternative is to use a commercial webmail's smtp server such as Gmail's

Notes

  1. For better configurability, version 2.0.0.4 is recommended. It's available here.
