Before You Begin

RedbirdMail is Illinois State University's web-based email solution. Most members of Illinois State can use RedbirdMail to check email.

Exchange Users: Some faculty and staff use Exchange for email. If you use Exchange email, you should use Outlook Web App (OWA) to check email on the Web instead of RedbirdMail. If you need help determining whether you should use RedbirdMail or OWA, please contact the University Computer Help Desk.
