This configuration and its implications for users is described below. Again, you may chose to forward it elsewhere or read it on yukon. Local UAF users may log onto any SGI in any of the visualization labs to read e-mail, and use a program such as zmail , mail , or pine . As noted above, internal e-mail on either Cray host will be delivered there. You may use the program, mailx to read it there.
Most users prefer to read their e-mail on their own workstation.
You may forward your mail from ARSC to any other e-mail address by simply creating a file, called .forward , in your SGI home directory. This file will contain a single line of text, your preferred e-mail address. The system will automatically forward your mail when it detects this file. The internal e-mail delivered on either Cray host, generated most often by the NQS batch system, may be forwarded to any other internet address using a .forward file. Create the .forward file as described for the SGIs.
