UT's E-mail Software -- Tmail

Tmail is Microsoft Outlook Web Access. To take advantage of all the features and functionality, it is recommended that you use it with Internet Explorer. Go to (http:// tmail.utk.edu). You will find some great features in Tmail that weren’t available in previous e-mail software. One example is: on the login screen, you have some radio buttons below the log in. Under Client, the Premium client allows ALL the Tmail options. Basic limits the options, but is faster. Under Security, selecting Public or shared computer logs you off after a few minutes of inactivity. This is what you should select when you are in a public lab. Private computer allows you to have a longer period of inactivity before being automatically logged off. This is the selection you will want to make when you are working from home. Note that you will want to turn off “Pop up blocker” for this Web site, as you will receive a pop up prior to sending an e-mail message. On the Tmail log-in screen (http://tmail. utk.edu) you will need to enter your NetID and password and click the “Log On” button.
