How would I be able to obtain the email address of a Stanford professor?

<p>I went to the Department of Biology section in Stanford's website and when I attempted to find the contact information on one of the faculty members, but the only information given is the professor's phone #. Is there any universal email system used by Stanford (<a href="mailto:johndoe@stanford.edu">johndoe@stanford.edu</a>, <a href="mailto:jdoe@stanford.edu">jdoe@stanford.edu</a>, ext) that I would be able to guess his email or would I have to specifically discover his email, and if so, how could I go about finding it?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>There's no standardized way of doing e-mail addresses; when you first get one, you can pick your address. John Doe might be jdoe@stanford, johnd@, johndoe@, or even something completely different. You would have to actually get the address from someone or somewhere. If the professor has a webpage (a lot of them do, I think), you might try that as a start.</p>
