IEEE E-mail Alias
with Virus Scanning and UCE Filtering
|
Your_Name@ieee.org
IEEE offers a personal e-mail alias service through which IEEE members can register or instantly update a personal alias of their choice. Messages addressed to the alias@ieee.org will automatically be forwarded to the members real Internet e-mail address at their ISP.
An IEEE Personal E-mail Alias also offers an optional anti-spam feature – the Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE) filter. Choose your own level of filtering sensitivity to have UCE tagged for your review or completely blocked from delivery.
Advantages of a Personal IEEE E-Mail Alias
- If you change your internet service provider and hence your e-mail address, you only have to send one update to IEEE.
- If you change your employer or your location within the company which results in a different e-mail address, you only have to send one update - to IEEE.
- An e-mail address which is independent of your service provider or employer.
- Only one place to make changes to your e-mail address.
- IEEE aliases are usually easier to remember and simpler to use than the real address.
- An e-mail address which associates you with IEEE.
IEEE E-mail Alias is easy to sign up for and easy to update. Register today for your IEEE e-mail alias.
