email accounts

<p>When do we get our college email accounts? A friend of mine said soon...</p>

<p>Alledgely the first batch of email account letter were sent today.</p>

<p>Goto <a href="http://www.cornell.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.cornell.edu&lt;/a>.
Search for your name under 'People'.
Your net-id will show up. This "<a href="mailto:net-id@cornell.edu">net-id@cornell.edu</a>" is your e-mail.</p>

<p>If, for some reason your name doesn't appear, then wait a few days and try again. You might not have been in the batch of students who it was generated for first.</p>

<p>We still don't have the passwords though, right?</p>

<p>So we can't log into those accounts I don't think</p>

<p>ckc29 is my netid? does that mean i'm <a href="mailto:ckc29@cornell.edu">ckc29@cornell.edu</a>? That's kind of a crappy id, but ok</p>

<p>mcdcoops,
u'll have to wait for ur password to arrive in mail before you can actually use ur id.</p>

<p>HotelschoolCornell,
yes ur stuck with <a href="mailto:ckc29@cornell.edu">ckc29@cornell.edu</a> for the rest 4 yrs of ur stay at Cornell</p>

<p>jc264, ugh</p>

<p>It looks ugly</p>

<p>ur cornell email will be with u for the rest of ur life till u die.</p>

<p>kryptonite man...harrison...</p>

<p>skm47...I'm good with that...would've preferred a better # though</p>

<p>so our net id IS our permanant email at cornell?...you cant change it? </p>

<p>grrr</p>

<p>no you can't.
Just be happy ur name wasn't Frederick Uyaso Chrsitian Kelly.</p>

<p>aw come on dont be so pessimistic, that would have been funny. i almost wish that was mine name because imagine a link in my profile on aim to F U C K 69 @CORNELL.EDU. why dont i have such cool initials?!</p>

<p>fhe3, not bad at all. I didn't receive my password today, did anyone else?</p>

<p>i believe its because they have way too many students... so they do it by initials, and then number?</p>

<p>i want my email now! haha.</p>

<p>you think yours is bad? <a href="http://pag.csail.mit.edu/%7Eadonovan/dilbert/show.php?day=19&month=08&year=2000%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://pag.csail.mit.edu/~adonovan/dilbert/show.php?day=19&month=08&year=2000&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Yeah it's done by initials and then the number means your the nth person to have an account with those initials.</p>

<p>it's weird to think i'm the 34th person with the initials rll. but i do like the number 34.</p>

<p>amc must be pretty common...I'm # 245</p>

<p>cornell was delayed in sending the passwords out in mail, so they will prolly start arriving tommorrow 17th and on.</p>
