Webmail
Even if you do not consider yourself to be very computer savvy, it's easy to get started with Road Runner webmail.
There will be one master Road Runner online account, which is usually listed in the name of the household's bill payer.
However, that person will have the ability to set up separate accounts (also known as sub accounts).
These can have separate access screens, and of course, separate e-mail addresses, so that even when the master account holder sets them up, they can still be accessed on their own.
The Roadrunner e-mail login and main interface is very intuitive, with the main mail folders lining the left side of the screen, and options such as "Compose" and "Search Mail" clearly labeled across the top.
After logging into the Road Runner web mail client, you will see your messages sorted from newest to oldest. Clicking "Get New Mail" quickly refreshes the page so that you can quickly see if new messages have arrived.

In closing, Road Runner email is quite simple to use, so many people feel prepared to start using it as soon as it is set up.
However, if any problems arise, a customer service staff is available to quickly provide Roadrunner help. A live chat feature even allows you to get help without ever leaving the computer.
