Apparently I've caused a bit of tempest in the teapot.  I'lve had one
jackass hang up on me and another threaten me.  Wow!  We alll need less
drama.

So let's all simmer down, myself included.

Here are the points I was trying to make:

1. MSU has made an intitutional statement that students and staff must use
mail.msu.edu to receive official e-mail.

2. MSU's official central e-mail system is mail.msu.edu.

3.Most people use Gmail or another provider for their e-mail.  If most of
the MSU community doesn't use mail.msu.edu, then therefore they need an
obvious way to auto-forward.

4. Mail.msu.edu hides the auto forward function. The expected options are
along a ribbon bar as one would expect.  The most important option on
mail.msu.edu is hidden under an obscure label of "MSU Prefs."

So let's make this clear: the leading land grand university hides how to
receive communications from the institution.  This is not optimal.

Folks, I've mostly laid under radio silence for a year.  I will now go back
into silence.  Googbye and good luck.
