bMail

bMail is a proprietary email service developed and operated by Berkeley Information Technology (Berkeley IT) for the University of California, Berkeley campus. It serves as the primary communication platform for students, faculty, and staff, providing access to email, calendar, and contacts. bMail is built upon Google Workspace, integrating Google's suite of collaboration tools.

Users are assigned a unique bMail address, typically in the format of [email protected]. The service offers features such as large storage capacity, spam filtering, and integration with other campus systems. Access to bMail is managed through UC Berkeley's central authentication service, CalNet. The service aims to provide a secure, reliable, and efficient communication environment for the university community, supporting both academic and administrative functions. Berkeley IT regularly updates and maintains the bMail infrastructure to ensure optimal performance and security. Support for bMail is available through various IT help desks and online resources provided by Berkeley IT.
