The IRIDIA and the ULB network

The IRIDIA system administrator can create an account on the local subnet for you, however, if you want to have access to some of the computer services of the university, you'll need an account on the university network as well. Ask the secretary for the forms and the process.

Mail configuration

Assuming that you have an account on both the local and the university network the mail settings are as follows:

Service URL

SMTP

smtp.ulb.ac.be

Iridia POP

iridia.ulb.ac.be

Iridia IMAP

iridia.ulb.ac.be

ULB POP

pop.ulb.ac.be

ULB IMAP

pop.ulb.ac.be

The SMTP server does not require authentication. The POP and IMAP services of ULB accept unsecure connections (no SSL). The POP and IMAP servers of Iridia require secure connections (with SSL).

There are also web interfaces available to read the email if you can not connect to the above servers via POP or IMAP:
