'''Email''' is the primary official form of communication at Columbia. All students, including [[Barnard College]] students, are issued an email address @[[columbia.edu]]. Students at some [[:Category:Schools|schools]] are issued an additional email @barnard.edu, @gsb.columbia.edu, etc. All email addresses come with 250 MB of storage.

Most students check their email using CubMail. A small number of people still regularly use Pine to check their email.

The smarter method is to use [[w:Microsoft Outlook|Microsoft Outlook]] or [[w:Mozilla Thunderbird|Mozilla Thunderbird]]. Outlook has more features, but it costs money, you probably won't use the extra features, and you'll come to hate the program after a few years in the [[real world]]. So you should consider using Thunderbird. Configuration instructions are [http://www.columbia.edu/acis/software/thunderbird/config-home.html here].
