The New GW Email System

After a bumpy start, the new GW Webmail system is up and running. Users can now access email through a web-based graphical interface with new and improved features. Using the GWMail Management Console, users can easily set their account to forward email to another account, or set up an automatic message notifying others when they are on vacation. It is also easier to send and receive attachments using the new Webmail system. Information about the new Webmail system can be found at http://www.gwu.edu/~gwmail.

For information about creating new accounts, go to http://www.helpdesk.gwu.edu/helpdesk/accounts/index.html. Select your status (student, staff, faculty, etc) and then follow the instructions provided. For information about switching your old GWIS account to the new Webmail system, follow the instructions located at http://www.gwu.edu/~gwmail/subpages/pass.html.

If you are having problems with your email account call the ISS Data Help Desk at (202) 994-5530, option 2, or e-mail ithelp@gwu.edu.
