Each person connected with
the University of Maryland in
any way is listed in the
University Directory without
having to apply for an "account"
in the usual sense. Anyone
listed in the directory can set
up a new username and password
at the campus Division of IT's
website. HR will send you
instructions for setting up this
login as soon as they complete
your entry into the Directory.
Your University Directory ID
will be used for most campus
systems.

Google Postini Service is a
SPAM filtering service that is
provided with your Smith
email account. If you have
a Smith email account,
your Postini account has
already been set up for you with
default settings to begin
filtering spam and viruses. An
email with your login
information for Postini should
be in your inbox of your RHSmith
email account upon arrival. You
do not need to do anything to
begin using this service. Once
it begins filtering, you will
receive a quarantine message
weekly. You can check anytime
to see that it hasn't caught any
mail that wasn't really SPAM.
Postini is a flexible product
that puts the user in control of
spam and viruses.
