Access UFF-FIU webmail

Account

If you are an officer or a senator for UFF-FIU, then you are eligible for an e-mail account at www.uff-fiu.org. This account should already have been created for you. If you did not receive your account notification, or have forgotten your password, then please contact the webmaster.

Security

Please do not read your UFF-FIU e-mail from a mail server that is supplied by FIU. In other words, please don't read your UFF-FIU e-mail from your office. Please do not read UFF-FIU e-mail from your home computer if you are using an e-mail server provided by FIU.

Access

There are several web-based e-mail programs available from UFF-FIU. All of them can be reached from http://www.uff-fiu.org/webmail. You will be required to enter a username and password. These should already have been sent to you.

Please note that the user name is the entire address: user.name@uff-fiu.org.

Password

From the access page you can change your password.

Forwarding

From the access page, you can request that your UFF-FIU e-mail be forwarded to antoher account. Please do not forward your account to a mailbox at FIU. If the webmaster discovers such a forward, it will be removed.

Server

If you would like to read your UFF-FIU e-mail from a different e-mail client, then the name of the server is mail.uff-fiu.org. This address will accept either POP3 or IMAP4. If your account name is first.last, then the user name to use for the e-mail client will be first.last+uff-fiu.org.

Be sure that your outgoing server (SMTP server) is not set to an FIU server. You can also use mail.uff-fiu.org as your outgoing server. In order to be sure that you are authorized to send mail through the server, always check your mail just before you send a message.

Deleting Messages

Please keep your mailboxes free of clutter. We have to pay for all the space that we use, so please delete messages that you no longer need.

Here is a simple procedure for deleting all the messages from a folder, at once.

1. Log into webmail and use Squirrel Mail to access your mail.
2. Select the Search link.
3. Select the folder from the drop down list.
4. Enter the @ sign in the search box.
5. Click the Search button.
6. Click the Select All link.
7. Click the Delete button.

This will delete all the messages from the folder. When you are done, be sure to delete all the messages in the Trash folder, since all the messages you deleted are still in that folder.
