Find Out the Name of Your IMAP Post Office Server
This form does not provide configuration information for Exchange email users. It is for IMAP users only. If you're not sure which system you use, see: Q: How do I tell if my email is on the Exchange email server or the IMAP email server?.
Use this form only if you're an IMAP email user and either of these scenarios applies to your situation:
- You've been instructed (e.g., by a technical support person) to enter your MIT post office server name in your email settings instead of hesiod, the name service that keeps track of your post office server.
- You're using an email program that works with email at MIT, but does not make use of the hesiod name service.
