CEIBS email system supports various methods to check email, such as POP3/SMTP, IMAP/SMTP, WEBMail. Please find the detailed information as following:

POP3/IMAP server address: pop.ceibs.edu
SMTP server (Outgoing Server) address: mail.ceibs.edu
Outgoing server requires authentication. 
URL of the CEIBS WEBMail: https://webmail.ceibs.edu

If you have installed any pop-up blocker program or turn pop-up blocker on in Internet Explorer 6, please add this address to the trusted site to enjoy the full function of our webmail system.
The full version of the CEIBS WEBMail usage guide can be downloaded from here.

 

Anti-spam service is enabled for Staff and MBA student. Based on our experience, the spam detection engine can help sort out most of the spam mails. However, since it is just based on heuristic rules to classify spam mails, there are always chances that legitimate messages may be mistaken as spam (so called the false-positives). This false positive problem can sometimes be critical if an important or time-sensitive message is not read because it was classified as a spam.

 

Surfcontrol RiskFilter is used as our anti-spam mail gateway. It provides a very useful function to avoid the mistake. That is a message named “Daily Junk Mail Digest” which lists the emails blocked as junk mail. Every student will receive it and recall the message which is classified as a spam by mistaken. For detailed information, please refer to the relevant document in FAQs.
