Hi Stan,
I'm sorry that my not clarifying the background of this unsettled you somewhat.
I'm a PhD student at the University of Antwerp http://win.ua.ac.be/content/staff and like many of my colleagues, I was dissatisfied with the webmail interface that the ICT would provide: It's old, it's buggy, and it seems unmaintained.
One solution would be to set up a mail server in the CS department; maybe the University IT would go for that, depending on the rapport between them and the CS dept.
Give this mailo server its own mail domain (MX record).
Then install whatever mail handling software you want for you and your colleagues.
The only missing piece would be to forward your University e-mail (going to you@university) to your CS mail server (you@cs.university).
This could be achieved if the university mail system provides forwarding.
From your cs mail, you could still use the you@university address for sending; no need to reveal you@cs.university.
