Wake Forest currently uses Google as an email service provider.

In addition to email, your WFU account offers full Google Workspace services (ie Calendar, Drive, and Chat) and is your login for many WFU services, including connecting to wireless, Canvas, Workday, and Adobe Creative Cloud. 

You can access your account by visiting google.wfu.edu and entering your WFU email address (username)@wfu.edu and account password.
