The main e-mail system at Dartmouth, which is used by students, faculty, and staff is known as the Blitz System. In addition to e-mail, Blitz provides document sharing, video and web conferencing, and 25GB of storage for each user. Blitz accounts are hosted either in the cloud or on premises environments. Cloud accounts are hosted by Microsoft Online Services. Microsoft's strong commitment to privacy for users and information security for the institution were key factors in the decision to select Microsoft as the provider of these services.
A limited number of staff are on our on-premises Exchange system hosted on Darmouth servers.
