Spectrum Webmail is a convenient, web-based email solution for customers of Spectrum Internet. It serves as the unified platform for accessing legacy email accounts from Time Warner Cable (TWC) and Roadrunner (RR) after the two companies merged in 2016 to form Spectrum.

Prior to the merger, TWC and Roadrunner operated their own separate webmail services at webmail.twc.com and webmail.rr.com respectively. Customers with @twc.com, @rr.com, and other associated email addresses used these older platforms. To streamline the experience after combining, Spectrum created the new unified Spectrum Webmail at webmail.spectrum.net.

Security for Spectrum Webmail

While using any web service, it’s important to follow best security practices. Here are some tips for keeping your Spectrum Webmail account secure:

  • Beware of Phishing: Spectrum will never send you emails asking you to verify things like passwords or credit cards. Any such communications are likely phishing attempts to steal your information.
