Since Christopher Newport University uses a web-based e-mail system, there is some required setup to e-mail your advisees.  The easiest way to do so is using the Chrome browser.  The first time that you try to e-mail your advisees, you may need to set up Chrome to handle e-mail links.

To do so, navigate to your CNU e-mail.  You’ll see the following symbol in the Address Bar:

Click on the symbol and the following menu will appear.

Select “Use Christopher Newport University Mail” from the menu and click “Done”.  From now on, any e-mail link you click on within Chrome will open up in your CNU e-mail.

Resetting the Mail Handler

If you don't see the symbol, it means that you've previously told Google not to use your CNU mail to open mail links and you'll need to reset it.

To reset the mail handler, click on the three dots at the far right of Chrome and choose Settings.
