[Year 12 IPM] OT - Edumail Exasperation

Tue Nov 14 20:28:33 EST 2006

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your advice. I had tried pop and pop2 but not pop3!!!! I have now=
 got my edumail into yahoo, which is great and means I don't have to deal wi=
th edumail getting full and therefore not receiving emails, but yahoo only g=
ives 200MB.

I have several contacts who use incredimail, but can you access it from the=
 web? For example - when I am at home or school etc? I have to keep my main=
 email on my desktop at home (it's the business computer), have a laptop for=
 school, which is set up to use outlook for school mail (Lauriston mail unti=
l 12/12/06), and edumail. I also have a gmail, and apparently one of the mos=
t requested features for gmail (apart from 'save draft') is to be able to co=
llect other pop mail. When that happens my life will be complete!!! :))

Thanks once again, and may the sun shine on you !!

Hi Ros,

I use "Incredimail" and "pull" all my mail account into the one place, inclu=
ding Edumail and Hotmail.
The setup for Edumail is; Incoming mail     pop3.edumail.vic.gov.au  (you we=
re close) port 110
                                            Outgoing mail    smtp.edumail.vi=
c.gov.au port 25 which I think are the defaults.

As an aside, I can reply to any of my emails from any of my emails simply by=
 selecting "From" on a toolbar.

Hope this helps

Hi everyone

I would like to become divorced from Edumail, and go for custody of our 675=
 children (ie my inbox in edumail)

*	
	Roland has the great idea of using gmail, and I used to use Yahoo mail and=
 import my edumail into it, but I have some questions relating to the whole=
 process.

*	
	The old version of yahoo still supports (I think) migrating my edumail into=
 it - but whereas it used to work it no longer does - does anyone know the p=
op address to use (I thought it was pop.edumail.vic.gov.au)

*	
	How can I do this in gmail? Does anyone know how to import other pop mail i=
nto gmail - if in fact it can be done? I would like to avoid using too many=
 email addresses for education related stuff. gmail will hold 2 gig of mail=
 whereas yahoo holds 200 mb, so obviously gmail would be preferable. I also=
 need to be able to get onto my edumail wherever I am (ie via the web)

*	
	What is the size limit of edumail folders and how can I find out how much s=
pace I have left? You used to be able to do this until edumail went to a MS=
 Exchange server.

*	
	If I am near my capacity in edumail do I get a warning email, or does it ju=
st stop delivering email to your inbox?

Any help would be much appreciated - thanks
