you definitely don't need to include the muss.cis part in your address, and a quick way to get to your muss email is "muss.mcmaster.ca " incase you didn't know.

I don't know if this is the case with hotmail but with gmail you can actually set up your mac email account so you can compose messages from whichever email address you choose (gmail or mac).

Be careful with forwarding your emails though. Continue to check your Mac Email account because not all emails will be forwarded. I think that if someone sends you an email @muss.cis.mcmaster.ca , it won't be forwarded.
