How to forward your email from the math server to some other account:


Warning! Do not forward to the Exchange server unless you are sure that mail is not being forwarded from the Exchange server to math! Otherwise you will create a mail loop which causes a lot of problems.


First log into the math.cudenver.edu server and open a terminal using one of these:

To setup forwarding to the exchange server type something like this:
echo FirstName.LastName@storm.cudenver.edu > .forward
Where FirstName.LastName is the first part of your Exchange email address.

OR To setup forwarding to the ouray server type something like this:
echo username@ouray.cudenver.edu > .forward
Where username is your ouray user name.

You can test to see if this works by typing:
echo testing message | mail -s testing123 userid      (Where userid is your math userid)
                (the | [vertical bar] is the shift \ character not i and not ! )
Your message should go to your forwarded email location.

If you change your mind, you can cancel forwarding by typing:
rm .forward
