If you are familiar with the Greene County School Email system, you will notice some changes that were made during the summer of 2005.  These changes include the following:

  1. A web interface
    1. You can now access your email from any location having an internet connection.  To access your email, perform the following steps:

                                                               i.      Open the web browser, Internet Explorer or Netscape

                                                             ii.      Type www.greenecountyschools.com

                                                            iii.      Select the link labeled “Staff Email”

    1. You can also type in the following URL: https://webmail.greenecountyschools.com (Be sure to type the https)
    2. You may see a security alert message.  If so, select yes.  (See figure 1)
    3. Enter in your username and password (see figure 2)

  1. Outlook, Outlook Express, or Eudora will no longer work outside of the school
    1. If you are currently using Outlook, Outlook Express, or Eudora in your classroom there will be no changes.  (You have the option of using either the web interface or one of the packages listed)
    2. If you use Outlook, Outlook Express, or Eudora at home to access your Greene County School Email account, you now MUST use the web interface.  To keep it simple, whenever you need to access your email and you are not at school, use the web interface
  2. Any emails that were not received or downloaded before July 1 are no longer available.
    1. If you did not check your email before the conversion took place, there is no way to retrieve any emails not received. 
  3. SPAM
    1. There are now spam filters in place.  This should prevent a majority of unwanted emails.
  4. Blocking of other email packages
    1. We will not start to block any third party email packages until December 2005.
