Avoid saving your mailbox password when using a shared or public computer, such as at work, school, a library, or an internet caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Always log out of Webmail when you are finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When Should You Use Webmail?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Webmail is best when you need to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Access your email from different devices
Check your email when you are away from your usual computer
Confirm that your mailbox password is working
Test whether an email issue is with your mailbox or your email app<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using One Main Computer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you mainly use one computer, an email app such as Outlook, Apple Mail, or Thunderbird may be better for daily use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Webmail is great for quick access, but email apps are usually better for long-term use on one device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
