Finding Haverford Email Addresses

Campus Directory
MessageCenter
Advanced Eudora Features

 

 

Although most Haverford email addresses take the form first initial followed by last name, there are exceptions. If you are unsure of a username, you can look it up in the campus directory, or you can set Eudora to use the our "ph" server.

Web-based Directory Service

Haverford has an easy to use web-based directory accessible from the College home page, http://www.haverford.edu.

PH Directory Service

Haverford also maintains a PH server, providing a quick way for Eudora users to find usernames. However, to use this feature, you need to configure Eudora properly. Follow the instructions for your computer, as the procedure is a bit different on Windows and Macintosh systems.

Note: Ph is only available while physically on-campus, or while connected to the campus network via our dial-up server or VPN.
