Subject:  Restrictions on Use of E-mail

This is a reminder, as we approach an election, that certain types of e-mail messages violate state policy when using UW e-mail. In particular, we are not allowed to send or forward any messages that involve a political recommendation for or against any candidates or initiatives. We can't control what we receive, so if you receive any messages from outside parties of this nature you should delete them and not forward them on.

The policy/rules for use of email can be found at the following URL:

Thank you for your cooperation in this important matter.
