RCI users can get email through a variety of means. There is a Web Based Interface. Thunderbird can be configured to read RCI email, and so can Outlook Express (the mail software that comes as a part of the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser) or Outlook (the mail software that comes with Microsoft Office). Users can also SSH to RCI and use Pine, as well as forward their email to a different account. There are also vacation options for your mail when you are away.
