On this opening day of the Paris Nautic boatshow, and as Christmas approaches, I can't resist the urge to provide a small gift to satellite messaging app users Iridium Mail & Web app. A tip that has just been reminded to me in the last newsletter of our friend Dominique, from iTabNav.fr, that you can meet on the Stand E11 – Hall 2 from ROM-Arrange.
For those who don't know yet, the email account created for use with the Iridium Mail & Web app (¹) has been accessible for some time by a Webmail from any internet browser.
The address https://www.iridiummail.net/ allows you to connect directly to your email, previously saved on the page Iridium Registration (¹). Select the language first before entering your username and your password, created during registration.
The "gear" icon in the upper banner allows you to access the setting of messaging preferences.
The "Folders" icon displays the same list of mailboxes as in the Iridium Mail & Web app, and provides access to their content management.
The "Compose" icon allows you to enter your emails and add attachments. They will be sent from your address username@myiridium.net as if they were sent from Iridium Mail & Web with your satellite phone, and this even if your plan is inactive.
At reception :
This is a handy tool to access this messaging from anywhere, to consult the emails received, even with a FLEX Package during " Standby " option in example,, or a temporarily deactivated SIM card.

Huge Francis, thank you so much
I will finally be able to empty my spam from this box before leaving.
Special mention to my previous employers ... Corsica Voile or something like that, who had put my Iridium address on their mailing list. I don't intend to rent them a boat.
And I confirm, it works, super, I'm leaving tomorrow.
Thank you! A welcome tip for those who go on a stand-by package for a pit stop.
