E-Mail Policy Guidelines

To The Faculty Newsletter:

I suggest we accept Professor Lerman's guidelines for dealing with e-mail as a policy for the whole Institute. Several of these I have used in my research group for a few years and they work very well. I would only like to add one: Don't forward e-mail without the consent of the sender. On many occasions I have seen e-mail from me show up in people's mailboxes for whom it was not intended.
