===== SCS Email Upgrade Information =====

The SCS technical Staff are in the process of upgrading the SCS email server. The new email server will have:

  * larger inbox size (1 GB)
  * better spam protection
  * two webmail clients


<note important>In order to facilitate the changes all users will need to **create a new account** on the new server. Documentation will become available on how to move files from your old email account. </note>


Here are the email links for the SCS email web clients:

  * [[http://www.scs.carleton.ca/newmail| New Web Mail Link (mail) ]]

<note warning>You cannot read your davinci mail using the new Web Mail client (RoundCube and the new Horde IMP)</note>

  * [[http://www.scs.carleton.ca/mail| Old Web Mail Link (daVinci) ]]

\\

=== Moving mail folders from daVinci ===

Your saved mail is stored in your linux home directory under the mail folder. Your old account files are accessible on [[services:external_access_host_quest | quest.scs.carleton.ca]] and you need to move that folder to your new account on [[ services:external_access_host_access | access.scs.carleton.ca ]]. You copy the folder as follows:


<code>[jdoe@quest ~]$ scp -r mail access:</code>

Once you connect to mail.scs.carleton.ca you can then import your mail folders from your home directory.
