   Remote E-Mail Services

 

Remote E-Mail Services
Normal Road Runner e-mail can only be accessed from within the Road Runner network using your cable modem. In other words, you have to be on your Road Runner connected computer in order to access your Road Runner e-mail.

We recognize that "remote access" to e-mail is important for some, and have created several optional methods for using your Road Runner e-mail while away from your cable modem. Please remember, these services are OPTIONAL, and are NOT INTENDED TO REPLACE your existing e-mail software.

 

Conditions for Use

To use any of these services, you MUST agree to the following conditions. If you do not agree to these conditions, please do not use these services.

  • These Remote Mail Services are provided by Road Runner Hawaii "as is." We know that some services may NOT work with certain combinations of computer hardware or software.
  • These are EXTRA services that Oceanic/Road Runner make available for no extra cost, to those who can and choose to make use of them. As such, Oceanic/Road Runner's ability to support these products is limited to e-mail.
  • If you are NOT able to use any of these services for any reason, you are not entitled to a discount in your monthly Road Runner subscription.
  • Use these services at your own risk.
  • Oceanic/Road Runner can make no security or privacy guarantees on any Remote E-mail Service.
  • If these services are abused or misused, Oceanic/Road Runner reserves the right to terminate any service without notice.

 

What are my options?
Still with us? Okay... You have three options for Remote Mail access:

  • Web Mail: A "web site" that you can access from nearly any Internet connected web browser to send and receive e-mail. Find out how...
  • Mail Forwarding Service: A way to redirected your Road Runner e-mail to a different e-mail address. Find out how...
  • External (POP) Mail Server: A way to use almost any non-Road Runner Internet connection to access your Road Runner e-mail. Find out how...

Which should I use?
No one solution is better than any other. But, to help you decide which may be best for you, here are a few scenarios to think about:

  • You are taking a vacation in another state. You're staying at your brother's house. Your brother has a computer, an Internet Service Provider and an e-mail account.
    Consider: Web Mail or Mail Forwarding Service
  • You are traveling with your laptop. Your laptop has a modem, and you have a dial-up account with another Internet Service Provider.
    Consider: External (POP) Mail Server
  • You already have well known (by your friends and associates), non Road Runner e-mail address...maybe a work related address. You would like your Road Runner e-mail to ALWAYS be received at your work e-mail box.
    Consider: Mail Forwarding Service
