What is soismail?
All new students at SOIS are automatically issued with a soismail account. This is a Gmail account from Google created within the school's own SOIS mail system. The soismail address is used to send and receive email to and from the school, including individual teachers and sports coaches, so students should check it regularly for messages. Forwarding your soismail to another account You can setup your soismail account so that messages are automatically forwarded to another personal email account that you commonly use; that way, you can ensure that you receive all school mail without having to login to GMail directly. Information on how to do this can be found here: |

How to 'unsend' an email in GMail
Although you cannot cancel a message that was sent long ago, you do now have a short period of time to retrieve an email that you have just sent before the recipient reads it. Navigate to your “Settings” pane in the menu directly below your profile photo and you’ll be given the option to “Enable Undo Send,” along with a drop-down that lets you customize the cancellation period for the feature: five, 10, 20 or 30 seconds. Set it to 30 seconds, the maximum allowable. |
