E-Mail Project Assignment

1. Obtain an e-mail account. Become familiar with its operation
   
   
2. Subscribe to the class e-mail alias for your section. Here's how to do it:
   
   
   • First make a copy of these directions - simply open this page in a separate browser window or copy and paste the directions into an editor window.
   • Click here: http://majord.csustan.edu/ to subscribe to the class listserv (or enter the URL into your browser's "address panel").
   • Enter your e-mail address in the panel indicated. (If you have more than one e-mail address enter the one you want to use for class correspondence.)
   • Check "ALL" for "Browse which lists?" and then click "GO".
   • Check the "Sub?" box beside "cs4000-7" and then click "Apply" at the top or bottom of the page.
   • The final screen will tell you what happened.
   • You should receive two email messages from Majordomo@pollux.csustan.edu.
   • The first message should tell you that your attempt to subscribe succeeded. If you don't get that message within a few minutes you should go back to the web site and try to subscribe again. If it appears that things are not working after a second attempt please check with me.
   • The second message should contain a welcome to the listserv and some information. Read the message and save it for later reference.
   
   
3. Read the directions below and send me an e-mail as described:
   
   
   • The e-mail must be sent To me at exactly this address: john@ishi.csustan.edu
   • You must set the Subject of the e-mail to exactly this: CS4000Lab#01
   • Give answers to the following questions in your e-mail message:
     1. What is your name? (very important! :-)
     2. Do you have experience using a computer? If so, how long, and doing what?
     3. Do you have access to a computer at home, and what kind?
     4. Why are you taking the class? (A lot of students say it's because they have to take an upper-division GE course and CS 4000 is not very hard. It's fine if that's all or part of your answer. However, if there are other reasons, I'd really like to know.)
     5. What you would like to learn from this class?
