How do I forward my email?

To arrange to have any e-mail that you receive on your CADE Lab account forwarded to a different address, do the following from any CADE Lab computer:
1.  Choose the address to which you would like your e-mail forwarded. Let’s suppose it is fred@hotmail.com
2.  Issue the following two commands from a Unix shell window:
cd
echo “fred@hotmail.com”  >  .forward

(The first command directs you to your home directory; the second creates a file named .forward that contains your forwarding address.)

Alternatively, you can set it using our Webmail.   Login and click the ‘Settings’ button at the upper right.  Click the ‘Vacation’ tab and fill in the ‘Forwarding’ box at the bottom.  Be sure to click ‘Save’ when you have finished.
