What facilities does the portal offer?

The new alumni portal offers you 1 GB of storage space for your e-mail and documents. The mailbox is equipped with an adjustable spam filter and a virus scanner. When you don’t want to use the mailbox on the alumniportal of the University of Twente, you can also configure your mail address to forward incoming mail to another mail address.

To read your mail you can use the webmail facility that is offered within the alumni portal, but you can also use your favorite mail client (like Microsoft Outlook). See the following link for detailed setup instructions.

Within the alumni portal you can create folders to archive you mail. You can also store files to access them anywhere and share them with other alumni.

You can also change and add private and career information and indicate in which way the University of Twente may use this information. You can also indicate which information you would like to receive through your graduate mail address.

The alumni portal also offers you an address book with an up to date search engine. Of course it is possible to add your contacts manually, but you can also automatically import contacts. For this option, you can choose from fellow graduates, student and employees of the University of Twente.

For the last option, it is made possible to search for fellow graduates within the portal and add them to your netwrok.
