The Computer Services of the University are in charge of managing the E-mail services which are directed at the different collectives that make up the university community.
The UPM keeps the following mail addresses:
Type of account | Associated Web page | To whom it is directed |
@upm.es | Personal | - Personal accounts for Teaching and Research Staff - Personal accounts for Administration and Service staff - Personal accounts for other collective - Institutional accounts |
@alumnos.upm.es | Students | - Student personal accounts |
Access to these addresses is made through the use of the POP3 or IMAP4 protocol, and can be consulted either by the E-mail client that supports this protocol or by means of the associated Web page.
There is also another series of E-mail accounts in the university linked to the different Centres or Departments.
In an attempt to reduce the amount of junk mail arriving at the addresses, a series of measures has been introduced in the E-mail inbox relays, in spite of the fact that new measures may be added or changed in the future:
- Control by means of GREYLISTING
- SPF Control
Depending on the university collective to which the user belongs, there are different procedures for obtaining an E-mail account.
- The Teaching and Research staff and the Administration and Service staff are automatically given an E-mail address. After completing the employment requisites in the Human Resources Department, you will be notified of your assigned E-mail address and how to activate it definitively.
- Students must follow a specific procedure by completing the steps specified in the section Solicitud del Servicio (Application for Services) on the Web pages associated to the service: https://correo.alumnos.upm.es
- For those people whose contract with UPM is through the OTT office or the Vice Rectorate for Research there is a specific procedure. If you belong to one of these collectives, you must contact the said Units.
