OCmail
OCMail (Oberlin college e-mail) is Oberlin College's e-mail service and is provided by Google Apps for Education. OCMail replaced ObieMail! in 2008. All new incoming freshmen for the 2008-2008 school year will only have OCMail accounts, and the rest of the college community will be invited to opt-in to the new system on July 7th, 2008. The entire campus community will be transitioned to OCMail by the start of fall semester 2008.
[edit] Features
OCMail uses the same interface as GMail, with a few aesthetic modifications. The biggest features include using a highly increased quota limit over that of ObieMail, Google search to find key words in e-mail messages and headers, the ability to label messages and add multiple labels per message and Google's high quality spam blocker.
[edit] Opinions
I really love the new interface. I use GMail most of the time, so changing from the awful ObieMail interface to this one made me really happy. --Anonymous, 1 June 2008
Using OCMail with Apple Mail or Thunderbird is pretty quirky--but I love the new web interface. --Anonymous, 3 June 2008
