You can categorize your e-mail into subfolders within this mailbox. A [https://mail.astro.columbia.edu/ webmail interface] (secured via HTTPS) provides an alternative access method. The mail is filtered for spam and viral content before delivery. 6 6 7 == Recommended Email Handling Software == 7 == IMAP, SMTP, and Webmail == 8 9 Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) is a system by which your e-mail is kept on the server and can be accessed from any machine on the network.
