WebMail Access Screen

Enter your username. If you do not know your username, it is the name used for your CMC email address. Typically, it is the first initial of your first name followed by your last name. For common names, however, this username may already have been taken. In this case, your username will be the first initial of your first name, the first initial of your middle name and your last name. If you have a dual or hyphenated last name, your username will be based on the last part of your last name, i.e., jsmith for John Jones-Smith.
Username Examples:
sserendipity - first initial first name/last name
jasmith - first initial first name, first initial middle name/last name
Enter your password.
FIRST TIME USERS: If accessing WebMail for the first time, enter the last 6 digits of your Social Security Number.

After entering this password, you will be prompted to reset it. Use no less than 6 characters, combining letters and numbers for a more secure password.
