Networked departments can automatically request E-mail service.
To establish email accounts, an authorized person in your department must fill out the request online. IF you are not sure if your department has an authorized person, contact Velice Gladman at 1-6520 or by email. After an account is created, contact the HelpDesk for installation. This service is not open to students. The message to be sent must be of an official nature or benefit to the majority of the MCG campus and Hospital and Clinics.
