WebMail allows you to access your email from anywhere with
a computer with Internet access and a web browser. WebMail is not meant
to be used as the main form of sending/receiving email. Instead, it is meant to
be more of a convenience for when you are away from your computer (i.e.
traveling, at home, etc.)
Students are allotted 5 megabytes (MB) of space.
Employees are allotted 20 megabytes (MB) of space. You will not be able to
receive additional e-mail once you reach your storage limit.
