Email forwarding is out of order
Posted January 29th, 2009 by erbauza in
Automatic email forwarding from @earlham.edu and @bethanyseminary.edu accounts via Webmail is out of order for nearly all users*. Earlham Computing Services is working on the problem, but they have no time estimate for a solution.
We recognize that many seminary folks rely on this feature to allow them to check their seminary email account from another email account. There are three options for people who have been forwarding their mail:

SCAM: "Important Notice"
Posted January 30th, 2009 by erbauzaThis scam keeps it short, giving you less time to think about how strange the whole thing is. Happily, in addition to asking you to send in your password via email (which neither SCS nor ECS will ever do), the senders make some clear errors:

Spam is rising
Posted December 10th, 2008 by erbauzaJust in time for the holidays (and exams!) - we're seeing a 37% increase in the amount of spam that attempts to enter our network compared to this time last week. Why do spam rates continue to rise? Because spamming is still quite proffitable; a recent study showed that spammers can make very good money with a response rate of 1 in 12.5 million.
Forwarding your seminary email account

Q. Can I have email from my seminary address forwarded to another address?
A. Yes! The process is fairly straightforward:
Setting up an email client or service
Posted March 24th, 2008 by erbauza in
An email client is a program that is installed on your computer, which communicates with an email server (such as Earlham's). In the 'classical' email system, you would use a client to download mail onto your computer; in the brave new world of 'Web 2.0', many web-based email clients (GMail, Yahoo, etc.) can download email from remote servers directly, allowing you to access your email all in one place. Note that this is one way to work around the current problems with automatic forwarding in WebMail.
