1.5: E-mail

E-mail is the standard way for users to communicate with one another on computer systems. In addition messages from the computer (indicating, for example, that you need to change your password) are sent via E-mail.

On the Unix Cluster, your E-mail address is simply

username@pppl.gov

Important: You must ensure you can (and do) read mail sent to this address. You have three choices for how your mail is handled:

1. You leave the mail on the Unix Cluster and you use some mail reader on the Unix Cluster to read your mail.
2. You leave the mail on the Unix Cluster and you use a POP client on a desktop computer (e.g., Eudora on a Mac) to access your mail via a POP server on pppl.gov.
3. You have your mail forwarded to another computer system.
