Guidelines for the ateneo.edu Mail System
The new mail system is on the e-mail server, mail.ateneo.edu, and
will host new user accounts under the ateneo.edu domain.
It is intended as an upgrade and replacement for accounts of Ateneo
de Manila University employees hosted on pusit.admu.edu.ph,
which will still be maintained as the mail server for the rest of the
Loyola Heights campus community.
