If you usually read your e-mail from a PC lab, or from a computer that you share with many other people, you will not want to leave personal options or mail on that computer. In that case, you should use a web browser and access your mail through BamaMail . This is a single web site that allows you to read and send e-mail without any prior setup, and you can visit this page from anywhere in the world. A third option is to log onto bama.ua.edu, which is a UNIX machine, and use the PINE program on that machine. If you are used to using UNIX, you may prefer this choice, which also requires no setup on the local computer and can be done from anywhere in the world.
