Silver Star Communications

Get started with your new Silver Star email account today with the simple instructions below!

On our homepage, you will find a link to webmail. This service is intended for you to use while you are traveling or if you want to check your email from work or another computer. It is not as user friendly as one of the email software options below, and we do not recommend using it as your primary way of checking your messages.

Quick Tips before using your new Silver Star Email Account

Install your antivirus software before using your new email account. Run the updates for the antivirus software to make sure the version you have is the most current (even if it is brand new).
