Cmail accounts are provided automatically to all students (including undergraduates, graduate students, and professional students). To use your Cmail account, you simply need to set it up. You will continue to use your NetID@cornell.edu address (for example, ewe1@cornell.edu) with Cmail. It’s your choice whether to have your Cornell email routed to Cmail. Even if you don’t use Cmail for email, you can still use its other features. (You can change the routing for your Cornell email through the Who I Am service — you’ll need your NetID and password.)

Generally speaking, faculty and staff will not have Cmail (or Umail) accounts, and students will not have accounts in the central Exchange service that faculty and staff will use starting in September 2009. Exceptions can be made to meet very specific needs.
Cmail accounts are provided automatically to all students (including undergraduates, graduate students, and professional students). To use your Cmail account, you simply need to activate your Cornell NetID (see the New Students web site for more information about this process). After you activate your NetID, you will use your NetID and password to sign in to see your email (cmail.cornell.edu), or go to the Cmail start page (start.cmail.cornell.edu). Your email address is your NetID@cornell.edu (for example, ewe1@cornell.edu). It’s your choice whether to have your Cornell email routed to Cmail. Even if you don’t use Cmail for email, you can still use its other features. (You can change the routing for your Cornell email through the Who I Am service — you’ll need your NetID and password.)
