Need Help Re: McMaster E-Mail
Here's the deal.

I've tried to fix this before but failed.

To make a long story short, whenever I send an e-mail to myname at mcmaster dot ca,
it automatically redirects my mail to my Yahoo! account.

I have removed the rules and the other e-mail address on my MUSS account and unchecked the "forward
e-mail" part of it.

I also went on MUGSI and changed my primary e-mail address that was my Yahoo! address
and reverted it to the myname at muss dot cis dot mcmaster dot ca.

Whenever I send an e-mail to myname at muss dot cis dot mcmaster dot ca, it works just fine
and it lands on my MUSS e-mail, but when I send one to myname at mcmaster dot ca,
it still forwards it to my Yahoo! account.

Any ideas?

That's the only way I know how to fix it. At this point I think you should contact UTS.

Do you have Yahoo! mail configured to pull mail from the Mcmaster server?

I'll be giving them a call on Tuesday if I'm still having trouble with this.

No. My Yahoo! account is clean. I've never fiddled with it
when it comes to pulling mail. If I want to send a mail to another account,
I always forward, not the other way around so it'll be easy to troubleshoot problems like these.
I've checked the headers and it seems that
UTS is filtering my mail and forwarding it before it even hits the MUSS system.

Weird.
