Email FAQ

How can I check my email from off campus?
The easiest way to check your email when you're away from your personal computer is to use the web-based email package called "MNUMail". It is available at http://mail.mnu.edu/. Just enter your username and password and click the Login button and you can check your MNU email account from anywhere in the world.

I can't login or check my email. Where/how do I get my password changed?
If you've forgotten your Internet account password or are having trouble accessing your account (this includes both dialup and email). please stop by the Mabee Library computer lab and speak to a lab technician.

Can I use Microsoft Outlook (or xyz client) with my MNU email account?
We support the following Internet software:

• Microsoft Outlook 2003/2007

• Apple Mail

Why is my email bouncing back to the sender and I'm having trouble getting into my account?
You may have exceeded your allotted disk quota on your account. Each account is allocated an amount of disk space to store email, web and other files. If you exceed this allotment, your email will bounce back to the original sender with an error.
