Traveling with CCI E-mail
You can access your e-mail account when you are not at home from any Internet connection:
The Junk Mail folder is located in CCI Webmail in My Folders. It is a system-created
folder that receives mail that the anti-spam scanning utility has determined is junk mail.
You should periodically check the messages in your Junk Mail folder for mail that really is not
spam.
To learn more about spam handling tips, select HELP from the webmail top right menu.
