You will find below our tutorials for the main prison / institutional email systems in place.

What’s your penpal’s prison email system?
Access Corrections | ConnectNetwork | CorrLinks⚠️ Inmates in the federal system have to send you an authentification code before being able to start emailing with you on CorrLinks. In those cases, you will have to reach out to the inmate by postal mail first and give them your email address for them to send you the code. | Edovo⚠️ Inmates using Edovo have to send you an authentification code before being able to start emailing with you. You will have to reach out to the inmate by postal mail first and give them your email address for them to send you the code. | GettingOut | JPay | Securus Technologies⚠️ If you are not a US, Canada, or Mexico resident, Securus might not allow you to use their services. If this is your case, the services offered by Jmail (see below) might be a good alternative for you.
⚠️ Some facilities/states allow emails to be received, but not sent. Always include your mailing address if you choose to email, as some people can only answer through snail mail.
