Email service phaseout on pangea
Last revision August 3, 2007 As described in news items, email service will end on pangea by November 1, 2007, and email forwarding will end on June 30, 2008. If your pangea account was created after July 11, 2007, then this email service phaseout does not affect you, because your account was created without email service. Pangea will neither receive nor forward email messages sent to account names created after July 11, 2007. It simply returns them to the sender, with an "address does not exist" error. New pangea account holders should never give out a pangea email address, because it will never be valid. So new account holders have nothing to do, except to remember to use a non-pangea email address and to make sure that non-pangea address is listed in the School of Earth Sciences personnel directory (click on the login link in the upper right to edit your entry) and the Stanford Directory so people know how to reach you. If you are active at Stanford, people will expect to reach you with an @stanford.edu email address. Whether you use that as your main email account, or forward it to an outside account, make an email alias in the Stanford Directory of the form Firstname.Lastname@stanford.edu. This is often easier for others to remember than your actual SUNet ID.
