Pine Email
Default Domain for Return Address
The default domain for outgoing mail for existing users is still libpo.ucdavis.edu. The recommended and default for new users is lib.ucdavis.edu.
The return address of mail sent via pine will be 'user@libpo.ucdavis.edu'. If you wish to change this default to ucdavis.edu you must reconfigure pine as follows.
Existing users who change this setting will be unable to post to mailing lists until their subscriptions have been updated.
Please note that making this change will also affect your recipient addresses. Normally composing an email to 'sally' will expand to 'sally@libpo.ucdavis.edu'. After making the change below, email to 'sally' will expand to 'sally@ucdavis.edu'.
- Use PuTTY or SecureCRT to login to the mail server 'mail.lib.ucdavis.edu'.
- Start pine by typing 'pine' at the command prompt.
[juser@mail ~]$ pine
- When prompted for the username press enter and then provide your email password.
