E-Mail Accounts
Lotus Notes E-MailUpon enrollment or employment, you receive a Lotus Notes e-mail account. Your e-mail address is created with the format: [username]@notes.udayton.edu.
Your password is initially the same as your Novell/LDAP password. If you have forgotten your password, reset it at address.udayton.edu.
In addition to the e-mail address, you gain access to:
- Sametime (secure instant messaging)
- QuickPlace (group discussion and document sharing portal)
- Data storage space on IT's servers for storing e-mail sent to your address -- 100 MB for students and 250 MB for faculty and staff
There are two ways to access your e-mail:
1. use the Notes client software on your computer
2. visit Notes on the web at https://notes.udayton.edu
