This is how to join the facebook network with your newly activated mac id, worked for me.
1) Go to
http://mugsi.mcmaster.ca/ and log in (to MUGSI) with your MacID's.
2) On the first page, on the upper right side where it says "Quick Links" There is a link to "Enable your MAC ID Services" click on that.
Forward your E-mails to your normal accounts if you haven't already:
3) Click on "My Profile" on the left side of the MUGSI page
4) Back under "Quick Links" is a link to "E-mail Address Management"
5) Click on the dot next to the textbox and put in your usual e-mails (hotmal/gmail/etc.), click "Submit"
To make sure it all worked out:
6) Go to
http://muss.mcmaster.ca/ and login with your MacID's
Now this is where things get hairy. For some reason, you can send e-mails FROM muss but can't receive any. Here is what happened with me:
(I'm gonna use "user" instead of my MacID in these examples)
When I tried sending an e-mail to
[email protected] r.ca I instantly got a response e-mail that the address does not exist.
So, I tried sending it to just
[email protected] that did NOT get a failure e-mail in response, but I still haven't received the e-mail yet.
What I did to join the group:
I tried using just
[email protected] to enter the McMaster network, and THAT worked. I got the e-mail shortly afterwards in my usual gmail account and now I'm in the network!! XD
HOPEFULLY it will work for you... no promises... be persistent and try both
[email protected] and
[email protected] r.ca but try the first one first. Resend the confirmation e-mail a few times if you have to, and be patient it takes a bit for the e-mail to come.
