Secure SMTP Transition
Beginning in Fall, 2009, all email clients (including those on-campus) must be configured to use Secure SMTP (the protocol that allows you to transmit email) over port 465 (the standard SSL port) with authentication (a user name and password). This migration continues the Secure Communication project that was started in 2005.Read More about the Secure SMTP Transition >>

New HSU Policy About Student Email
Resulting from a proposal in the Academic Senate and approval by the President, starting June 1, 2009, your Humboldt State University email account is an official form of communication between you and the university. You are responsible for checking your HSU email account for official communications. Although you may elect to redirect messages sent to your official HSU email address to another address, you do so at your own risk. Having an email lost as a result of re-direction does not absolve you from responsibilities associated with communication sent to your official university email address. The university is not responsible for the handling of email by outside vendors or unofficial servers.
