Student Email Accounts

Student accounts provide access to student email, on-site access to the computer labs and off-site access to the library databases.

Student accounts are automatically created when a student applies, without students having to complete an account application.

Student accounts are not related online to MyUHV or Blackboard. Each are separate and distinct accounts.

Student email can be accessed from the labs on campus or remotely from the Internet.

Students can access email by using the web interface or by using an email client that supports Post Office Protocol (POP).

Storage space allocated per student is 50 megabytes(MB). When a student's amount of space used exceeds 45MB, a warning message is issued. When the student's amount of used space exceeds 50MB, outgoing messages can not be sent until the student frees some space by deleting old messages.

The maximum size of a single email message, sending or receiving, is 6MB.

Virus scanning software on the server blocks attachments with certain file types, such as (but not limited to) .exe, .bat, and .scr.
