Willamette Email Information

Accessing Your Willamette Email

There are several different options available for accessing your Willamette email account. 

Webmail - Willamette Webmail is a web-based email client that functions similarly to other web-based programs such as Hotmail or Yahoo. No special configuration is required to use Webmail - all you need is a web browser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape.

Netscape Mail - Netscape can be downloaded for free, and can be easily configured by students, staff, or faculty to access Willamette email from on or off campus. WITS installs Netscape on all university-owned computers.

Outlook 2003 - Outlook 2003 is part of the Microsoft Office 2003 software package, and offers a full-featured mail client as well as other organizational features. It can be configured to access Willamette email from on or off campus.

Outlook Express - Outlook Express comes pre-installed on most new computers, and can be configured to access Willamette email from on or off campus. WITS does not install Outlook Express on university-owned computers.

OS X Mail - For Macintosh users, OS 10.2-10.4 comes with an integrated email application called Mail, which can be configured to send and receive Willamette email.

Pine - Pine is a text-based email client, which can be accessed from on or off campus using Telnet or SSH (both are available for free download). 

Thunderbird Mail - Thunderbird can be downloaded for free, and can be easily configured by students, staff, or faculty to access Willamette email from on or off campus. WITS installs Thunderbird on all university-owned Windows computers. You can also get Thunderbird for Macintosh.

Other Email Clients - The Email clients listed above are the ones that are supported by WITS. You may choose to use an email client that is not listed here, but if you do so, WITS can offer only very limited support. We will be able to provide you with the necessary email server settings, but it will be up to you to properly configure your email client to use those settings.

Forward your Willamette email to a non-Willamette email address
