1. Web Based Email allows you to check, view, delete, forward, and store your ConnectTime email
using your web browser, i.e. Internet Explorer, Netscape. Web Based email allows you to send new messages,
including file attachments. Web Based Email provides personal mail storage up to 5MB and provides a personal
Address Book to hold your contacts.
Web Based mail can be used as your primary e-mail system, or in combination with your mail client, i.e. MS
Outlook, Outlook Express.
Web Based mail allows for 5mb of space for your mail account. This includes all messages and attachments in
all folders in your Web Mail profile. If you need additional space in your Web Mail profile, large files should
be downloaded to your local hard drive and removed from ConnectTime mail servers. You should also periodically
delete old messages from folders in Web Mail.
When using Web Mail, think of it as if you are viewing your email directly from ConnectTime mail servers. If
you delete a message from Web Mail, the message is deleted from ConnectTime mail servers. So, if you are using
Web Mail to view messages while traveling and wish to download mail to your computer when you return, DO NOT
delete messages from the Inbox in Web Mail.
