Earlham Webmail Password Changing Disabled
Posted May 28th, 2009 by davisryThe "change password" feature on Earlham's WebMail is not currently
working. Earlham Computing Services is aware of the problem, but does not
have a target date for when it might be fixed. For new students, this
means you will need to continue using the computer generated password
given to you with your email name. If you think your password has been
compromised, please contact us at x1568. Or, you can send us an email.
Email forwarding is out of order
Posted January 29th, 2009 by erbauza in
Automatic email forwarding from @earlham.edu and @bethanyseminary.edu accounts via Webmail is out of order for nearly all users*. Earlham Computing Services is working on the problem, but they have no time estimate for a solution.
We recognize that many seminary folks rely on this feature to allow them to check their seminary email account from another email account. There are three options for people who have been forwarding their mail:
More email scams
Posted May 19th, 2009 by davisryLooks like another round of email scams have started to make their way around campus. I'd like to take this time to remind everyone that SCS will NEVER ask you for your account information through email. Earlham Computing Services is not purging accounts based on user feedback.
Latest Email Scams
Posted April 26th, 2009 by davisryTwo more attempts have been launched to trick users into submitting their account information under the threat of losing access to their email accounts. It is important to remember that neither SCS or ECS will ever ask users for their account information through an email. If you have responded to either of these two emails you should contact the SCS helpdesk at (765) 983-1568 and we'll make sure your account hasn't been compromised.
Internet connection upgraded!
Posted March 19th, 2009 by erbauzaWe have just upgraded our internet connection! We are now using a portion of Earlham College's fiber optic internet connection through the I-Light network, which gives us a much faster connection to both the commodity internet and to specialized networks (such as Internet2 and National LambdaRail). Thanks to the folks at Earlham Computing Services and I-Light for their help and cooperation in getting this accomplished!
More options for retrieving seminary email
Posted February 24th, 2009 by erbauzaAutomatic forwarding of @earlham.edu and @bethanyseminary.edu mail is still broken in WebMail, so we've added more instructions for retrieving your mail with Yahoo and GMail accounts. Enjoy!

Email server out of order
Posted February 3rd, 2009 by erbauza in
The Earlham email server is (as you may have noticed) out of service at the moment. Attempts to access email, via Webmail or an email client on your computer, will likely be met with an "Error connecting to IMAP server: mailproxy.earlham.edu. 61 : Connection refused" or something similar. Earlham Computing Services is working on the problem; we'll keep you posted on further developments here.
