For messages, there are trays in the honours lab on City campus, and a designated pigeonhole at Bundoora. You should check these regularly. All honours students have accounts on the Unix machines numbat and yallara. Bundoora students have accounts on arcadia and the PC server spinifex. These machines should be used for mail, news, and word-processing.
Some students also have accounts on further machines as required for their research projects.
To get an account, you need to see the Duty Programmer. RMIT Computer Science computers can be used for course-related activities only. The primary means of communication within the department is by news, and all staff and students are expected to read news every day. Honours students should as a minimum read rmit.cs.general, rmit.cs.hons, and rmit.cs.mbc. We recommend that you use nn for reading news.
