Beginning March 1st, 2009, Smith’s primary email identity is switching from @email.smith.edu to @smith.edu. Your @smith.edu addresses has already been working properly for some time, but it will now be the preferred format.
(Don’t worry – your @email.smith.edu address will continue to work as usual.)
The college is switching to this simpler form to save keystrokes, streamline our email processing, and give Smith addresses the same format used by most other academic institutions..
IMPORTANT: You should start using your @smith.edu address to log in to the MessageScreen quarantine system. Also, if you subscribe to any email lists, you may need to change your subscription setup so you can continue posting to the list..
