Roundcube is one of two webmail interfaces offered by Central Systems and Services. We offer it for those who prefer a modern-looking interface and don't need the extensive feature set of our very powerful Squirrelmail interface.
As a relatively new e-mail client, we will continue to improve Roundcube. We encourage you to send feedback and feature requests to help@eden.rutgers.edu.

Two helpful documents are listed in the Additional Resources section for setting up spam filtering.
Incidents of fraud and identity theft are on the rise on the Internet, and universities are common targets. By frequently verifying the last IP address and Hostname that accessed your account, you can see if your account has been accessed without your permission.
Things to notice after login include the date, time, and location from which you last accessed webmail. Are they correct? Is the IP/Hostname you last accessed webmail from correct?
If we suspect unsual activity in your recent logins we will alert you with a message. If this message appears, you should verify that your account has not been compromised by checking prior login details.
