Accessing TigerMail from Internet-enabled cell phones

 

Task:

Accessing TigerMail through your Internet-enabled cell phone.

 

How to do it:

 

Note: Students that have not registered for their first semester cannot use the IMAP feature.

 

Follow these steps:

1. Check with your cell phone service provider to ensure your cell phone receives Internet service.
   
   
2. Consult your cell phone manual to determine how your phone sets up bookmarks.
   
   
3. Enter this into a bookmark in your phone:
   
   https://tigermail.auburn.edu/gw/webacc?action=User.Login&User.id=username&
   User.password=password&merge=main&User.interface=simple
   
   Important Note: Replace 'username' with your User Name and 'password' with your AU Computing password.
   
   
4. Save the bookmark to your cell phone.
   
   
5. With your phone connected to the Internet, select the bookmark and you will have access to your TigerMail.
   
   

Note: Normally OIT would never recommend saving a bookmark that includes your User Name and password, but your cell phone is a fairly secure device. Be aware, though, that if you lost your cell phone, it could be possible for someone to access your TigerMail account since your account information is saved.
