Your my.stlcc.edu student e-mail account is official means of communication with St. Louis Community College. As of August 2008, all communication from the College to students will be sent to my.stlcc.edu student e-mail addresses including financial aid updates, registration deadlines, assignments, student worker payroll stubs, etc. The my.stlcc.edu student e-mail account will also be the account that instructors use in Blackboard.
Upon activation, you will receive a mailbox using the my.stlcc.edu domain which is hosted the same way as Hotmail. The mailbox is accessible through the Web interface either through MY STLCC or http://mail.live.com, on a Web-connected mobile phone, or by POP3 e-mail (clients like Microsoft Office Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail) - all of the normal ways that you can access Hotmail. Unlike Hotmail, there's no inbox advertising for current credit students. Oh, and it also includes a 5GB mailbox.
Spam checks are bypassed for faculty e-mail deliveries to my.stlcc.edu student e-mail accounts to prevent faculty-to-student e-mail from being falsely classified as spam. But you do have one-click control incoming nuisance spam and scam e-mail.
Anti-virus defense and spell checking are standard, and it works for Windows, Mac and Linux computers using Internet Explorer, Firefox or Safari.
My.stlcc.edu student e-mail provides you a professional e-mail address, appropriate to communicate with potential employers and professionals in their field.
