Dear
Faculty and Staff,
On December 1st, 2015, CUNY issued a new security procedure that prohibits
the automatic forwarding of email from a CUNY email account to a non-CUNY
email account. Below is a portion of the procedure:
|
|
Email sent to a CUNY email
address mailbox shall not be forwarded through an automated means to a
non-CUNY destination email address. Selected email may be manually
forwarded by a CUNY user to a non-CUNY destination when such forwarding:
|
|
|
a. Will not result in an
inappropriate disclosure of NPUI
|
|
|
b. Does not also automatically
delete the email from the CUNY mail server
|
|
|
c. Complies with the
requirements of the CUNY Policy on Acceptable Use of Computer Resources
|
For the
full text of the procedure, please go to: Auto Forwarding Procedure
The City College Office of Information Technology realizes that this will
be an inconvenience to many of you who currently use this feature. One of
the ways that we suggest you alleviate some of this inconvenience is by
using a mail client that is capable of configuring multiple email accounts.
Most smart phones and email clients are capable of configuring more than
one email account and displaying messages from all of them to your client
simultaneously.
On June 1st, 2016, we are required to remove forwarding capabilities from
our mail servers to any domain outside of cuny.edu. If you are forwarding
email to an outside domain, please prepare for this change. If you need
assistance configuring your smart phone or mail client, contact our service
desk at 212-650-7878 and we will assist you with configuring a workable
solution.
