Material that is fraudulent, harassing, profane, obscene, intimidating, defamatory, or otherwise unlawful or inappropriate may not be sent by e-mail or other form of electronic communications. HMS reserves the right to revoke email and related privileges from any individual violating these policies. Behavior of this type violates the guidelines for student and professional conduct and is equivalent to fabricating identities on any other written document. Chain e-mail is a message sent to a number of people asking each recipient to send copies with the same request to a specific number of others. These acts include but are not limited to non-school related mass mailings, spamming, bulk emails, chain letters, subscribing to excessive listservers and mailing lists, or creating excessive unnecessary traffic on the servers.
