While many students have personal e-mail addresses, some of these addresses change over the course of study at Marquette, making them difficult to track. Your Marquette e-mail address stays the same -- short of a legal name change. Stable e-mail addresses ensure that messages from faculty as well as important university announcements reach students. eMarq will serve as an official means of communication for the university community. - Can I use an e-mail program (Outlook, Eudora, etc.) to access eMarq? (Top)
You can access eMarq e-mail with any of the following e-mail programs:
- Outlook 2007 or Outlook 2010 for Windows
- Outlook Web Access (OWA) via a Web browser
- Entourage 2008 EWS or Outlook 2011 for Macintosh
In order to access all features and functionality of the eMarq system (i.e. contacts, calendar, notes, tasks), IT Services recommends you use one of the Outlook programs listed above. - What Web browser can I use with eMarq? (Top)

- What will my e-mail address be in eMarq? (Top)
Marquette e-mail addresses follow the format firstname.lastname@marquette.edu. For example, under Marquette's e-mail addressing scheme John Smith's e-mail address will be john.smith@marquette.edu
If you and another Marquette student or employee have the same first and last names, IT Services will use your middle initial to provide unique addresses. For example, John J. Smith and John A. Smith's e-mail addresses would be john.j.smith@marquette.edu and john.a.smith@marquette.edu - What is the difference between my e-mail address and my username? (Top)
Your e-mail address is what people use to send e-mail messages to you. Your username (example: 23d4smithj) is a unique identifier that will enable you to login to eMarq and access your e-mail messages and calendar entries. Your username, coupled with your password (which should be kept secret) provide an additional level of security so that someone else cannot access your eMarq account. - How do I send an e-mail to multiple recipients? (Top)
When sending messages to multiple recipients, you must use a semicolon (not a comma) to separate the recipients. - Can I change my Marquette e-mail address? (Top)
Marquette does not allow students to choose e-mail aliases or "vanity addresses." Student e-mail addresses are based on the first and last name provided on the application for admission.
If your legal name changes while you are a student (e.g. marriage, adoption), please visit the Office of the Registrar (Marquette Central, Zilber Hall) to process your name change. Once the name change is reflected in CheckMarq, please contact the IT Services Help Desk to request to have your e-mail address changed to reflect your new name.
Faculty and staff e-mail addresses are based on the first and last name from the employment application. For legal name changes, please make sure Human Resources and the Office of the Registrar has your name change before requesting a new e-mail address. (Note: Faculty and staff should visit the Office of the Registrar for name changes in CheckMarq. IT Services relies on the name in CheckMarq to verify an email address name change.) - How do I change my eMarq password? (Top)
If you know your current password, change your password in Outlook Web App.

(Top)
OWA 2010 provides the same conversation view and experience as Outlook 2010: by default, messages are displayed in threads so that all the messages on a particular topic are grouped. No more searching for a previous message to check what the response is referring to. When a new message in a thread comes in, the whole thread gets moved chronologically to the date/time of the new message. Conversation view has its benefits and drawbacks, but if you don’t like it, you can turn it off. Just click Arrange by, scroll down to conversations, and deselect Conversation.
