Bearmail Grrrr!
Bearmail is a web-based system to read and send email. To use Bearmail, you only need a web browser, such as Internet Explorer. Point your web browser to http://bearmail.missouristate.edu and log in with your new Missouri State SGF Domain or if you have a classic account, use SMSU.
Microsoft® Outlook®
Microsoft® Outlook® is a desktop information management program that helps you manage your email, appointments, contacts, and tasks, as well as track activities, open and view documents, and share information. Outlook® comes with Microsoft® Office or can be purchased separately.
If you experience problems using Outlook®, you may want to try the Microsoft® Outlook® web site.
For more information on using and configuring Microsoft® OutlookTM, please see Introduction to Microsoft® Outlook® or Outlook®Dialup Instructions.
POP or IMAP
You can use many programs to check your email from home or office. When you use these email clients to check email from a home modem, Missouri State University refers to them as POP mail or IMAP mail clients (depending on your type of connection).
If you wish to set up a POP mail or IMAP mail client, please visit the Bearmail IMAP and POP3 setup guide for the latest settings.
