What does the webmail migration mean for me?
Beginning 08/17/20, PenTeleData will migrate the email service over to a new hosting platform. Blue Ridge customers accessing their ptd.net email through their web browser will see a new user interface. You will see the change if you log into your email through promail.ptd.net or when opening an email from within your My Blue Ridge account. Once the change occurs, you will be able to move seamlessly between desktop, mobile and tablet browsers.
Please note: Internet Explorer is no longer supported by PTD’s new email hosting service. We recommend using Chrome, Edge, or Firefox.
During the migration, you may see a new URL in your browser of https://promail-legacy.ptd.net. This web address is temporary and shouldn't be bookmarked or saved.
If you use Outlook, or another mail program or app, you will not experience any issues. In the event you encounter any problems with your email, please contact PenTeleData Technical Support.
