Using SPECTRUM

Using SPECTRUM email There are two main ways to access your SPECTRUM mail: via a traditional email client (e.g. Eudora, Pine, Outlook Express), or via SPECTRUM Webmail (reading/composing/managing your mail via a web browser). Webmail You only need a 128-bit SSL capable web browser, such as Internet Explorer or Netscape, to access SPECTRUM Webmail. Webmail offers the convenience of access from a web browser, but at the cost of some functionality -- webmail does not have as many capabilities as a regular, stand-alone email client (e.g. Eudora).
