Reading Your E-Mail
There are three ways to read your SuffolkWeb e-mail: Twig, telnet and an e-mail program.
Twig
      VIRUS WARNING: Twig allows you to open attachments and run them on your computer. If you do not know what an attachment contains or who it is from, delete it. If you open it, and it is a virus, it will infect your computer. Twig is a graphic mail program on the SuffolkWeb server. Twig allows you to view graphic and multimedia files using a Windows or Apple personal computer. If you use Twig it is your responsibility to delete your mail after you have read it, since it is stored on the SuffolkWeb mail server. We recommend using this method to read your SuffolkWeb e-mail on the Library's publicly available computers.
SuffolkWeb Mail
     SW Mail is a new graphic mail program similar to Twig. Some people have said that they like it more than Twig because of it's ease of use. As in Twig opening up files can lead to infecting your computer with a virus, if you do not know the source of an e-mail message, do not open attachments and delete the message.
Telnet
     Telnet has been discontinued, if you have questions regarding this matter, please contact SuffolkWeb tech support techsup@suffolk.lib.ny.us
