Accessing Email via the Web

on Tuesday, March 24, 2009

Recently CSU has experienced server issues that are affecting local Outlook email programs particularly off campus. In most cases you are able to log into the Exchange Account using OWA (Outlook Web Access) to retrieve and send email.

If you have an eID go to:

1) https://mail.colostate.edu (using Internet Explorer)

2) Indicate to the system whether you are on a "public" (shared) computer or a "private" one. Choosing the "private" option will save your username for the next time you log on and will provide a longer timeout period, but passwords are never saved.

3) Enter a CSU eName and ePassword in the fields given

4) Click the Log On button

Note that using the web version only gives access to inbox folders, not local folders (these are stored on your computer).

If you have a county email account go to:

1) https://mail.colostate.edu/owa/coopext_county@mail.colostate.eduNote “coopext_county”, insert your county name. Example: coopext_park

2) Indicate to the system whether you are on a "public" (shared) computer or a "private" one. Choosing the "private" option will save your username for the next time you log on and will provide a longer timeout period, but passwords are never saved.

3) Enter the county User name and Password in the fields given

4) Click the Log On button

Please contact the CSU Extension Help Desk if you need any assistance. (970) 491.5351
