Getting started with E-mail at Boston University
The steps below will quickly get you started reading your BU e-mail.
- If you haven't already, apply for an ACS account. Your account should be available within 12 hours after you complete the application process.
- Use Horde - BU's Web-based mail system
Using Horde requires no configuration, so you can get started easily and use it anywhere.
Alternatively, or in addition, you can configure a desktop mail program or forward your BU mail to another account you already use.
You should also review this other mail management information.
