Supported Email Desktop Programs

Overview

Stanford provides support (documentation and consulting help) for a variety of popular email programs. You can use any kind of email program you choose, but it must be compatible with Stanford's computing infrastructure and meet Stanford's email security requirements. Stanford can provide only limited, "best effort" assistance for unsupported email programs.
