− | ==E-mail forwarding==
| |
− | We encourage alumni to forward their e-mail. When you turn '''E-mail forwarding on''', this allows for your account to continue receiving e-mails even after the 1 year period of your account activity. It might be the answer if you do not want to keep your 鶹Ƶ e-mail account, but do want to receive any e-mails that are sent to it. E-mail forwarding will forward the e-mails to another e-mail address of your choosing. This option can be activated or adjusted in [/account/?pr=email&pr2=forwarding your account settings]. There is no charge for e-mail forwarding and will last as long as you wish.

− | ==Zip file of Home Directory==
| |
− | Many people want to keep copies of their [[home directory]], but forget to do it before their accounts are deactivated. The Classes of 2005-2014 have the option of downloading a copy of their home directory in [[zip]] format. There is no charge for this option. This option does not become available until after your e-mail account is closed/alumnified. This option is available on the [https://gts.gac.edu/gts/tools/ Alumni 鶹Ƶ User Settings Page]. You will still be able to log into this web page with your 鶹Ƶ e-mail username and your e-mail password.

| |
− | username\Net.real\gac\home\first letter of first name\first letter of last name\usersname.

− | The contents of your e-mail are in the Maildir directory. Viewing these messages is a little challenging. If you are using [[Thunderbird]], you can download and install an Add-on that will allow you to import the messages from these directories. Please see: [[Using ImportExportTools3.1 to view Maildir messages]].
