It is now possible to relay mail through the department mail server. Our SMTP server is now configured for SMTP AUTH/STARTTLS.

Note: Some ISP are blocking outgoing port 25. In that case, use port 587 for outgoing mail server smtp.sce.carleton.ca

  • General Configuration:

    • Set your SMTP server to smtp.sce.carleton.ca.
    • The secure STARTTLS runs on port 587.
