Important

  • Deleted Items - Messages in the "Deleted Items" folder will be permanently deleted after 30 days. Email in your Inbox and other folders are retained until you delete them.
  • Email Retention - UIT cannot restore emails from back-up. We recommend storing critical documents and attachments in a file/folder and not in your mailbox.  
  • Student Workers - Student workers will have two accounts; for normal student activities they will use NetID@student.montana.edu, but for student worker activities they will use NetID@msu.montana.edu
