Iquest webmail smtp

A very specific question!

iquest is a webmail service provided by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). To set up an SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) client to send emails using iquest webmail, you'll need to follow these steps:

SMTP Server Settings:

• Server: smtp.uiuc.edu
• Port: 25 (or 587 for TLS encryption)
• Username: Your iquest username (e.g., [email protected])
• Password: Your iquest password

Additional Settings:

• Authentication: Use your iquest username and password for authentication.
• Encryption: You can use TLS (Transport Layer Security) encryption by setting the port to 587 and enabling TLS in your email client.

Email Client Configuration:

To set up your email client (e.g., Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, or Apple Mail) to use iquest SMTP, follow these general steps:

1. Open your email client and go to the settings or preferences menu.
2. Look for the "Accounts" or "Email Accounts" section and click on "Add" or "New".
3. Select "SMTP" or "Outgoing Mail Server" and enter the settings above.
4. Save the changes and test your email client to ensure it's working correctly.

Note: If you're having trouble connecting to the SMTP server, you may need to check with your network administrator or IT department to ensure that your institution's firewall or network settings are not blocking the connection.
