You probably already have a U.B. email account, since this is usually set up as a matter of course for incoming law students. But if you don't use it, or set it to forward mail to your non-UB email account , you'll miss University and Law School news, announcements, and possibly your professor sending out updates to one of your assignments. If the account goes for a year without being accessed, it is usually closed by the University Computer Services Department, and all mail in the account is lost. If you are a student, you will need to have your faculty advisor send any messages you wish distributed to these lists. While faculty and staff may send to the lists, we ask that you exercise your best judgement in determining which groups really need to have the information you are sending.
Unwanted email is both an annoyance and a waste of campus computing resources.
This should remove your address from the list, after which point you will not receive mail sent to the list at large. While extracting attachments is not overly difficult using either Simeon or Netscape Mail here at the University, dealing with them through Pine mail when dialing in from off campus can be problematic. See the Simeon tutorial page for more information on dealing with attachments. Login to your UBmail account.
