Webmail

You can use Simmons WebMail to access your Simmons email from any computer with a web browser and an Internet connection. For instructions, see the Webmail guides below.  To login, go to email.simmons.edu.

If you would rather use email client software (such as Apple Mail App, Netscape, or Microsoft Outlook) to access your Simmons account, please see Set Up Email Software to Access Simmons Account  for settings and other information. Simmons Webmail uses the IMAP protocol, which means, among other things that all your email is stored on the server and you may organize your mail into folders.

• Filters: create a vacation/auto-reply message, forward your Simmons mail to another account, or organize your mail with rules that move, mark, copy and delete messages automatically
