Outlook Web Access: officially the worst university-sponsored email program I've ever used. The interface is clunky and confusing (emails will open and display on the page but not be marked as "read"), replying is a pain, and the threading is terrible. Chicago also has a gmail-based option, but it does not appear to work for me.

It makes me miss the old days of Pine and Eudora. And appreciate gmail more.

DavMail is your friend.

You're not old enough to miss Pine and Eudora, are you? Missing those is the rational response, of course, but I'm surprised.

Probably not technically old enough, but I've been online since '94 or '95, and active on email since '96.

I, for one, still use pine from time to time.


Since Google gives schools GMAIL for free, I don't understand why all schools don't just switch. Gtown just switched as a matter of fact.
