As a registered SUmail user, you'll be able to take
advantage of other Live@edu services at no cost, including Office Live Workspaces; Windows Live
SkyDrive; Windows Live Spaces; Microsoft SharedView beta; Windows Live Messenger; and Windows Live
Alerts; and Microsoft's support for all these services.

utilizes Microsoft's Live@edu services. When asked for your "Windows Live ID" or user name, use your official

PLEASE NOTE: Many people manage their SUmail incoming and outgoing e-mail directly
through the SUmail Web interface. However, if you use a third-party e-mail package to access your SUmail
account, please review this important information:
Using SUmail with other E-mail Packages (i.e. Outlook, Apple Mail, etc.)
SUmail Tips:
- You can Redirect / Forward your SUmail.
If you're using another program to get your email, and considering
redirecting your SUmail account to that other program, we encourage you to use
SUmail for a while and get familiar with its features before you decide to redirect
your mail.
- You can log in to your MyMail account to forward any existing email to your
new SUmail account. Your MyMail account will be accessible until December 31, 2009,
but will not receive new email messages. For instructions on how to move your
MyMail messages to SUmail, visit
http://its.syr.edu/email/sumail/mymail2sumail.pdf.
University e-mail policy note
The SU e-mail policy requires that all official
University e-mail communications be sent to your @syr.edu e-mail address. If you choose to re-direct
your @syr.edu e-mail to another account, such as @gmail.com, or @yahoo.com, you do so at your own
risk.
