Email Forwarding for Life Rolled Out

This fall, IET rolled out the Email Forwarding for Life Service, a Web-based application that allows graduates, retirees and others to have their email forwarded, upon leaving the university, to another address of their choosing. A Web site was developed (emailforwarding.ucdavis.edu) that provides an overview of the service, as well as answers to frequently-asked questions, and instructions for registering or updating a forwarding address. In addition, all qualified individuals receive an email notification describing the status of their email accounts and encouraging them to learn more about the service and register for it. A policy workgroup, involving representatives from IET and University Relations, has been formed to identify and address policy issues (e.g., email usage and retention, and electronic communications issues).
