How do I access my secure email from BMO?

How do secure emails protect my personal and financial information?
On the other hand, if an encrypted email is intercepted, the thief won't be able to read its contents without the correct User ID or Password, keeping your private details safe.
How do I access and read my secure emails?
If you’re already registered for secure email, sign in to the Message Center. We recommend you bookmark this site for future use. Once you’re signed in, you can find and open your secure email in the Message Center Inbox.
Do I need special software to read encrypted email?
Good news, you don’t. The only software required is your internet browser. Our new service is compatible with multiple browsers including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Chrome.
Can I reply or forward secure emails to other people?
Secure email exchanges are limited to you, your BMO Representative (s) and anyone on the original email, so you can reply to people on the original email. You can also forward and compose new emails to other people with @bmo.com addresses.
Can I reply to a secure email by replying to the notification in my regular email inbox?
Sorry, but no. Replying to the notification email will not send an encrypted response. You must sign in to the Message Center and reply to the email there to ensure it's encrypted.
How can I be sure my information is safe and the notification email isn’t a phishing scam?
All notifications will be sent from notification@secureportal.bmofg.com.
Are there any password requirements?
Your password must contain a minimum of 8 characters consisting of at least one uppercase character, one lowercase character and one number.
