Then, you can connect either via a browser from delos365.grnet.gr or via the Teams application on your computer.
How do I connect through the central virtual private network (VPN) service?

How do I manage my email at the University of Crete?

I received an email stating that my account will be closed and asking for my information. Should I respond?
No! This is a phishing attempt. You will never be asked for your account information, especially via email. Also, pay special attention to emails that refer you to pages outside the University and ask you to enter your login information.
