E-mail accounts to be officially terminated
USU’s Information Technology department is spreading the word: on Nov. 1 all cc.usu.edu e-mail addresses will be gone for good.
According to Kevin Reeve, marketing and communications director for the IT department, that means any student, faculty, staff, alumni or emeriti using the old cc.usu.edu e-mail accounts will be unable to send or receive e-mails from their accounts. But Reeves said it isn’t too late to make an easy transition.
Reeves said he, along with the entire IT department, are encouraging everyone who is still on the cc accounts to sign up and begin migrating to Aggiemail. Aggiemail, which is hosted by Google, is known to be easy to learn and extremely user friendly, Reeve said.
According to the IT Web site there is nothing to be done in avoiding the cc.usu.edu e-mail system being shut down. After the Nov. 1 termination of the cc.usu.edu accounts, all information stored within them will be inaccessible. However, the Web site also stated it is possible to have all mail being received by cc.usu.edu addresses forwarded to your new account. It is also possible to forward all previously received messages to one’s new personal e-mail.
The IT department can help any users of the cc.usu.edu e-mail system transfer addresses or saved e-mails to a new account. Reeve encouraged anyone looking for help with their IT needs to visit them in the Janet Quinney Lawson building, located across the street from the Education building.
