Faculty Information
Accounts and e-mail
The quota for all mail accounts will be increased to 500MB. Faculty who already have a different quota or need a different quota allocated should contact us at mix@mail.wvu.edu. Other users, with the support of the appropriate dean or department chair, may request an increased quota; such requests will be reviewed on an individual basis. Individual e-mails will be increased from 2MB to 10MB.
Faculty are able to forward their MIX account to their GroupWise account. The following domains are accepted: mail.wvu.edu, hsc.wvu.edu, and rcbhsc.wvu.edu. To set a forwarding address visit https://stats.mix.wvu.edu/ and login with your MIX username and password. Please note that it is a secure site so you must add the “s” after http.
Messages in the INBOX or in any other folder expire after one year and will be deleted. Messages placed in Trash or Deleted Items folder will be removed after seven days.
The session timeout for the new version of MIX is set to 30 minutes (same as current system). To allow for any longer than this is a security risk. If you are timing out more quickly than 30 minutes, call the HelpDesk at 304-293-4444 because spyware on your machine or antivirus settings may cause you to have a time out issue.
