<p>it says that we need a NetID; where do we find that? it's alphanumeric, so it can't be the ID number we got in our "we have received your deposit letter"</p>
<p>it's your simple-form email address (pc45)</p>
<p>So what was the password? </p>
<p>ahh i'm sorry this is all just confusing me.</p>
<p>Sorry for the late reply - it's whatever your Duke password is. To be honest, I do not know how they convey passwords to people these days... It's whatever lets you into your OIT acount.</p>
<p>Thanks! I called and they said we get our NetID and password "mid-May" just in case anyone was wondering.</p>
<p>Does everyone else get spam?</p>
<p>no? ...no spam for me... facebook was sending stuff but I just got facebook to send to a different addy.</p>
<p>I get spam everyday!!! :eek:</p>
<p>But a side question, if you change your e-mail alias, can you change it again? Like...what if you want a new one a different year?</p>

</p>
<p>Yes. I get double the spam because I'm on two Duke networks. :p</p>
<p>I've been getting crazy spam, yes. ):</p>
<p>When i first logged in, i already had 1500 messages of spam and it still comes in HOURLY. Anyone know whats the deal and how do i solve this?</p>
<p>Wow that's a lot of spam. Go to <a href="https://webacct.acpub.duke.edu/online/%5B/url%5D">https://webacct.acpub.duke.edu/online/</a> and you can filter it. It works fairly well for me.</p>
<p>Wow... that's rather ridiculous for a never-opened mail box...</p>
<p>Thanks duke25, that filter works really well!</p>
<p>hmm... when I tried to send an email to my alias, it didn't work</p>
<p>but when I used my actual email address, it worked right away!</p>
<p>could someone help me out with this problem?</p>
<p>Wait, what do you mean by alias and actual email address?</p>
<p>musings - are you sure that the alias you think you have is the alias you have? If you want, I can check - PM me your NET ID and I can send you back what The System thinks is your alias</p>
