E-mail Guidelines
E-mail Account Guidelines for the Department of Psychology
- Please allow 3 to 4 working days to process your e-mail account. Please come back in person within 3 to 4 working days to obtain form with your new psych e-mail account.
- All new e-mail accounts are serviced from our Zetapup - Unix server (POP/SMTP). Our MS Exchange Server accounts are only assigned upon special request. E-mail access may be done using any POP/SMTP clients. For assistance with your e-mail, please contact the Solution Center.
- E-mail accounts created for Faculty and Departmental Staff members will be permanent until employment termination.
- All deletion/termination of existing e-mail accounts should be directed to the Information Technology Solution Center. Your existing psych e-mail can be forwarded to a new e-mail address for duration of 3 months prior to deletion.
- Space limitation (25 MB) will be applied to all e-mail accounts, routine cleanup of your mailbox is recommended. We recommend users store their email on their local computers instead of leaving it on the server.
- Do not open any unknown or suspicious e-mails. Computer viruses often propagate through attachments that accompany these e-mails. If you feel uncertain or suspicious of these e-mails then please contact a support person from the Solution Center for advice.
- Keep your e-mail password secretive. If you think that your e-mail password has been compromised then please contact a support person from the Solution Center. Your password can be reset for the protection of your privacy and safety.
- All existing laws (federal and state) and University regulations and policies apply, including not only those laws and regulations that are specific to computers and networks, but also those that may apply generally to personal conduct.
