UCI email address for facebook

<p>nah, i wont if i haven't already. i've done my fair share of poking, being married, and having other people tag ugly pics of me. i still dont see how it can waste my life, hahah. there's way more pics for those who can't whore themselves enough on myspace, but really, i cant see how its a waste unless your life is dull enough to begin with</p>

<p>Im having probs trying to activate my UCInetID, Im putting in my Student ID #, the same one i use to check my messages/admission status. But when i put it in to activate my UCInetID it says it is not found. Am i using the wrong ID??</p>

<p>you may activate it "after june 9th." thus technically, you have to wait until june 10th.</p>

<p>So is it the 9th or the 20th? The UCI admissions page says the 20th...</p>

<p>i want my facebook!!</p>

<p>Facebook/Myspace won't waste your life when you already have MMORPGs like WoW doing that. ;o</p>

<p>I just want my e-mail address too...</p>

<p>Edit: Whoops, spoke too soon...I was just able to get it right now! Hahaha...</p>

<p>I suppose the e-mails don't work properly yet. I tested sending a message to my UCI address and received a returned mail error.</p>

<p>yes!!! activated! but i dont like my ucinetid. and i cant change it unless i pay $25. :((</p>

<p>yeah same. i can send from my uci email though.</p>

<p>okay guys i figured it out. i can receive emails through their webmail only if i email myself at <a href="mailto:UCInetID@es.nacs.uci.edu">UCInetID@es.nacs.uci.edu</a>. however, i can email myself at <a href="mailto:UCInetID@uci.edu">UCInetID@uci.edu</a> if i change my delivery point to another mail server (gmail, in my case). you dont have to mess with the putty stuff, just type in your alternate address, and when you email yourself at <a href="mailto:UCInetID@uci.edu">UCInetID@uci.edu</a> you'll receive it at your alternate email.</p>

<p>FACEBOOK HERE I COME!</p>

<p>I had no problems with my e-mail so far. I had to login to this webmail website in order to actual see my mail though. I still barely understand this, but I have my facebook!</p>

<p>yayy!! i got my UCI email! :) i made all my email go to my yahoo account just because i've had it for so long, and am so used to it! i also made my facebook account, it is in the process of merging my high school and college account! :)</p>

<p>at first I was sad that there was a "1" attached. but then I realized the 1 was there cuz I'M #1. hahhaa just kidding</p>

<p>hey someone start a UCI 2010 facebook group :)</p>

<p>Start adding around :D. I'm not dedicated enough to make a group, someone do it. Add me (search my sn).</p>

<p>how do u change ur alternate email point?</p>

<p>go to <a href="http://www.uci.edu/cgi-bin/phupdate%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.uci.edu/cgi-bin/phupdate&lt;/a> </p>

<p>log into your account, change the email part to other and write in the email addy you want to send it in!</p>

<p>I just got my UCI email, and I was wondering if it was limited to only 8 characters. Mine consists of the first letter of my first name, then my last name minus the last letter, which looks really bizarre. I was concerned this might end up being confusing. </p>

<p>If I can get a ninth character, I might try to change it.</p>

<p>^exact same thing happened to me...now it looks really stupid.</p>

<p>Yeah, my email is limited to 8 letters, which cuts off the last letter of my last name and makes it look weird. my brother's was the same when he went to ucsd (like a decade ago!). i guess the 8 letter thing is just a carry over from the old systems, cuz obviously nowadays you can have much longer names.</p>

<p>i heard uci girls are smokin hotttt. asian girls rock!</p>
