This is a summary of how to find email addresses for undergraduate and
graduate students, faculty and staff at various colleges and universities. If
your university is not listed, send me a detailed description of how to find
email addresses there and I'll add it to this list. Please mail ADDITIONS,
CORRECTIONS, SUGGESTIONS, and OTHER INFORMATION to me at
    [e-mail].
I will *not* answer requests for help finding a specific address; if the
school is not listed in this posting, I probably do not have any information
about the site, and certainly do not have the time to answer the mail.

An updated version of this list is posted every once in a while to the
newsgroups soc.college, soc.net-people and news.answers.  The version date for
this list is located at the top of the file. The list is also available via
anonymous ftp from ftp.qucis.queensu.ca (host 130.15.1.100) in the directory
pub/dalamb/college-email as the files faq1.text, faq2.text, and faq3.text.
You can also get the file by anonymous ftp from rtfm.mit.edu in the file
/pub/usenet/soc.college/Student_Email_Addresses, or by sending a mail message
to "[e-mail]" with the subject
    send dalamb/college-email
or by sending a message to "[e-mail]" whose body contains
    send usenet/soc.college/Student_Email_Addresses

A copy of this file may be found on the WAIS server at wais.cic.net,
thanks to Edward Vielmetti ([e-mail], [e-mail]).

After a discussion of general facilities for locating email addresses,
we present detailed information on locating the email addresses of
students, faculty and staff at various universities.  As of Feb 1993 I've
started to tag entries with the date I last changed them, so you have some
clue as to how stale the information might be.

Disclaimer: Most universities have restrictions on the uses of
directory information. So don't use this info for commercial purposes
or whatnot without securing permission from the individual colleges
and universities.

;;; General Facilities *************
;;; ********************************

There are several general facilities for locating an email address.
We concentrate on those usable from the internet.

o  finger

   Finger is a user information lookup program that lists the login name,
   full name, office location and phone number (if known), login time,
   idle time, time mail was last read, and the contents of the .plan and
   .project files from the home directory of current UNIX users. The
   information listed varies from site to site, and not all sites allow
   remote fingering. [Plan files are "sys$login:plan" on VMS systems.]

   To use finger, simply call finger as follows
    finger <username>@<machinename>
   replacing <machinename> with the name of the appropriate machine, and
   <username> with the name of the person or the person's login ID.
   For example,

    % finger [e-mail]
    [CS.CMU.EDU]

    [ Forwarding mkant as "[e-mail]" ]

    [A.GP.CS.CMU.EDU]
    Login name: mkant                       In real life: Mark Kantrowitz
    Directory: /usr2/mkant                  Shell: /usr/cs/bin/csh
    Last login Tue Apr  2 15:21 on ttyQ7 from LION.OZ.CS.CMU.EDU
    No new mail, last read on Thu Apr 11 16:27

   Notice how fingering my userid at the generic address forwarded the
   request to the correct machine. Many universities are set up to do
   forwarding in this manner, so that mail may be sent to the generic
   address and is automatically forwarded to the maildrop on the machine
   where the user receives his or her mail.

   Fingering using last names or full names may work, depending on the
   site:
    % finger [e-mail]
    [CS.CMU.EDU]
    [ Forwarding Mark.Kantrowitz as "[e-mail]" ]

    % finger [e-mail]
    [CS.CMU.EDU]
    [ Forwarding kantrowitz as "[e-mail]" ]
   Some sites with use an underscore (_) instead of a period (.) in the
   full name (e.g., Mark_Kantrowitz), or require an extra period to
   specify middle initials (Mark.X.Kantrowitz).

   If fingering using the last name doesn't work, you can try sampling
   various possibilities for userids. The following are some
   possibilities. After the description of each possibility, I give
   an example in square brackets with either the previous maintainer's name
   (Mark Kantrowitz, no middle initial - his was longer than mine!) or "John C
   Smith", and a generic acronym for the method, with f's for characters from
   the firstname, m for the middle initial, and l's for characters from the
   lastname; these acronyms will be used in the detailed listings section of
   this file.
    -  Many UNIX sites limit userids to 8 characters, so try the
           first 8 characters of the last name. [smith or kantrowi] llllllll
    -  If there are two people with the same last name, the first
           initial (and possibly the middle initial as well) are appended
       at the front of the name. [jsmith or jcsmith] flllllll fmllllll
    -  Try appending the initials at the end of the name. [smithj
        or smithjc] lllllllf llllllfm
    -  Try the initials of the users name. [jcs] fml

   Unfortunately, you cannot finger to bitnet addresses.

o  whois/nicname                Changed: Tue Feb 23 1993

   Whois is the internet user name directory service. Do
    whois help
   or
    nicname -h
   to get a help message. The whois and nicname programs will check
   the database maintained by SRI-NIC (Network Information Center
   at SRI International) for the given names. For example,
    nicname <name>
   or
    whois <name>
   or
    whois -h <host> <names>  (e.g., whois -h stanford.edu <names>)
   This is only useful for people listed in the database. Many regional
   networks and some universities maintain their own NICs.

   You can also get some of this information by telneting to nic.ddn.mil
   and running whois and host there.

o  Merit Network NetMail database

   Allows one to find the appropriate bitnet, internet or uucp address
   for a site given part of the address.
    telnet hermes.merit.edu
    At the "Which Host?" prompt, type netmailsites
    then enter any part of the address you want.

o  nslook/nslookup and hostq programs

   Some sites have programs which will give you information about a host
   given its name or IP address. Some such programs include nslook,
   nslookup, and hostq.

o  Netfind

   Use a netfind client or server program to search for
    name domain
   where name is the last name of the individual and domain is the
   domain name. You can use Netfind by telnet/rlogin to
   bruno.cs.colorado.edu (use userid "netfind" with no password).

o  gopher                        Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993

   Gopher is an Internet-wide distributed document retrieval service.  If your
   site has a gopher client program, you can use it to access gopher servers
   at other sites; domain X.edu might have a gopher server gopher.X.edu, but
   there's no guarantee.  One kind of document sites often place under gopher
   is their phonebook.  Most Gopher servers have pointers to a complete list
   of ph servers used by all sorts of organizations.  You can enter various
   criteria, in an easy-to-use manner, and it will return the info that you
   didn't give (if, of course, there are no more than 20 entries that match.
   This is to prevent people getting mailing lists via the ph servers.)

o  help/gripe/olc

   If your site has consultants or facilities staff responsible for helping
   users/fixing bugs/maintaining software, try sending them mail. Often
   they will be able to help you. If you don't know how to contact these
   people, ask someone in your department, or try sending mail to the
   userid 'help'.

o  postmaster                        Changed: Tue Feb 23 1993

   Most sites have an individual responsible for network and mail operations
   at the site, usually with the userid of 'postmaster'. So if you're having
   trouble with mail, first send mail to postmaster at your site, and if
   that fails, try sending it to postmaster at the destination site.
   Postmasters are usually very busy people, so try not to bother them much.
   Many postmasters will refuse to answer questions about user identification,
   for reasons of privacy.

o  /etc/hosts                        Changed: Mon Feb 15 1993

   Mail routing on UNIX machines on the internet use to use a large file
   called /etc/hosts to validate host names.  We used to advise you to examine
   this file to guess host names when all else fails - but that really isn't
   useful anymore.  Use one of the above methods instead.

o  LISTSERV

   If the person is subscribed to a mailing list through a LISTSERV server,
   sending mail to the server with the line
    WHOIS <name>
   may catch the person. For example, [e-mail]. This is an
   unlikely option. It also does not work with all listserv implementations.

o  Internet to America Online

   Creating the Internet version of an America Online address requires that
   you know the conversion rule. You ignore the case, remove the spaces, and
   add "@aol.com" to the end of the address.  Thus, an America Online address
   "Jane Doe" becomes "[e-mail]" (without the quotes, of course).
   Internet mail incoming to America Online is trucated at 27 kilobytes.


;;; ********************************
;;; Miscellaneous Notes ************
;;; ********************************

Addresses on the United Kingdon academic network (JANET) have their components
reversed. For example, @uk.ac.dund.mcs works on JANET, but in the rest of the
world use @mcs.dund.ac.uk instead.

;;; ********************************
;;; Email Database *****************
;;; ********************************

Amherst College:
    Students, Faculty, Staff: [e-mail]
    Usernames are of the form fmllllll (e.g., jqstudent), but
    truncated to 12 letters instead of 8.

    Amherst.edu has a finger daemon running, but it requires an exact
    username match (i.e. finger [e-mail]) doesn't work, as a
    rule.  It's also worth trying usernames like flllllll in case the
    person in question didn't register their middle initial with the
    College.


Antioch College (Yellow Springs, OH):

    [e-mail]

    All students, faculty, administrators, staff, and alum who request
    accounts can get them.  Almost all follow First Initial lastname
    setup.  Offices, such as ADMISSIONS, COOP etc have alias accounts.
    Best bet is to send mail to Postmaster or Laslow.

Arizona State University:
    Academic Machines: Grad, Undergrad
    The phone book for ASU's Faculty/Students is available online
    by telnetting (using the IBM's fullscreen interface using
    tn3270) to asuvm.inre.asu.edu and logging on as HELLOASU. The
    phone book has both email addresses for academic machines as
    well as the phone nos. (602 is the area code for all of Arizona)

    Engineering machines: Grad, Undergrad
    enuxha.eas.asu.edu   -- Unix -- can finger first/last names or userids
    enuxva.eas.asu.edu   -- Unix -- same as above
    envmsa.eas.asu.edu   -- VMS  -- Only userid fingering works.

    Usually csc and eee undergrads who use comps get accts on
    enuxha and almost all grads have accts on enuxha which is the
    most popular machine due to USENET.

Auburn University: (Auburn, AL)
    Engineering: eng.auburn.edu
    Other departments: ducvax.auburn.edu
    Try fingering at waterman.eng.auburn.edu, lab1.eng.auburn.edu,
    newton.eng.auburn.edu or netman.eng.auburn.edu.

Australian National University (ANU):            Created: Mon Mar 22 1993
    Canberra, Australia (Domain: anu.edu.au)
    netfind:  rlogin anu.anu.edu.au -l netfind
    Academic Machines:
      Grad, Staff userids fml### where ### is a group identifier.
        huxley.anu.edu.au  -- Unix -- finger on usernames only
        coombs.anu.edu.au  -- Unix -- GNU finger, allows first/last names
      Undergrad: userds lllfxxxx, where xxxx is course name/unit number.
        e.g. stuaca11 is A.Student doing Computer Science unit A11.
        fac3.anu.edu.au    -- Unix -- finger on usernames only
        fac4.anu.edu.au    -- Unix -- finger on usernames only
    Computer Science:
      boris.anu.edu.au   -- Unix -- finger on usernames only

Ball State University:
    University Computing Services: [e-mail]
    Some faculty and grad students have accounts on this machine.
    CS: [e-mail]

Barnard: See Columbia.

Bates College (Lewiston, Maine):
     Students and Faculty: [e-mail]
    Userids are of the form flllllll.  Numbers are added to the end
    of the userid in case of name conflicts, e.g. asmith, asmith2, asmith3
    If the name is unique you can use [e-mail]

Baylor College of Medicine:

    The central mail server is bcm.tmc.edu and finger [e-mail] will
    get you any faculty or staff user that makes use of the central mail
    facility. finger [e-mail] will get you any student that
    makes use of the student email facility.

    whois -h whois.bcm.tmc.edu gets you the on-line phone/address book.
    This is directly tied to the BCM personnel database, so the information
    is as accurate as possible.

    Questions about these facilities should be directed to
    [e-mail]

Birmingham-Southern College (Birmingham, AL):
    bsc835![e-mail] where userid are of the form
    flllllll. Postmaster is bsc835![e-mail].

Boston Univ.:
    Main campus system: acs.bu.edu.  Everyone can get accounts on this
    machine, but not everyone does. Call the person and ask (they may
    never log on even if they have an account). Student Directory
    617-353-3700, Faculty 617-353-2000.  Usernames are any "socially
    acceptable" 8-character name.
        Unix accounts: Mail or finger [e-mail] or [e-mail].
        Mailing [e-mail] is currently broken but should be fixed soon.

        CS: cs.bu.edu
    Undergrad CS: csa.bu.edu.
    Engineering: buenga.bu.edu (faculty/admin)

    In the fall (of 1992) BU will set up a nameserver on bu.edu.

Bowdoin:                    Changed: Mon Feb 15 1993
    Studnets: fl*@polar.bowdoin.edu, where f is the first initial, l* is
      the lastname up to 7 characters.
    Administrative staff: @henry.bowdoin.edu.  Mailboxes are fl* as above,
      or last_first
    Faculty: either of the above depending on personal preference.

Bradley University:
    Faculty: bradley.bradley.edu
    Students: buhub.bradley.edu, camelot.bradley.edu.  Usernames are
      chosen by the user and may be from three to eight characters long.
    Heartland Freenet: heartland.bradley.edu  Free use to the public, used
      mostly by the Peoria public. Use login 'bbguest'. login names are
      usually flllllll or fmllllll.
    Chemistry: chem1.bradley.edu
    CS: bucs1.bradley.edu, cssun1, cssun2
    Physics: truth.bradley.edu
    Physics: beauty.bradley.edu

Brandeis:
    Undergraduates: pip.cc.brandeis.edu
        Usernames on pip are of the form STXXYYYY where XX is
        the year the student entered Brandeis and YYYY is the
        student's campus mailbox number. Not all students use
        their accounts, so check with the student before emailing.
        US mail can be sent to
            <Student Name>
            MB <YYYY>, Brandeis University
            PO Box 9110
            Waltham, MA 02254-9110

    For phone information: On-campus students can be reached by dialing an
    automated "spell-the-name" server at [phone] , 24 hours a day,
    or during business hours through the Brandeis operator at +1 617 736
    2000.  Off-campus students' numbers can be obtained through the campus
    information booth at [phone] during business hours.

    Some undergrads have accounts on a more advanced unix machine,
    chaos.cs.brandeis.edu.  Userids are chosen by the student; finger
    {lastname}@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu or mail to
    [e-mail] for info.

    Graduate Students: binah.cc.brandeis.edu (brandeis.bitnet).
    Not all use them; write to [e-mail]
    for information. Userid is chosen by the student.  A few
    undergrads have binah accounts.

    DIRECTIONS to Brandeis can be had 24 hours at [phone].

Bridgewater State College (Bridgewater, MA)        Created: Wed Mar 24 1993
    Host: bsc.mass.edu

Brown:
        You can send mail to [e-mail] if the user
      uses email and it will forward the mail to him or her. To find
    out whether the user has an email address, finger their name
    at brown.edu. This will return their preferred phone number,
    address, and email address if they use it.

    You can also try looking for undergrads on: brownvm.brown.edu
    (brownvm.bitnet) Username is some random alphanumerics.
    CS: cs.brown.edu (userids are usually initials)

Bryn Mawr College:
    [e-mail] ([e-mail])
    The former is fingerable, unlike the .bitnet address. This
    machine is mostly used by undergrads.

Bucknell University:
    general: [e-mail]
    cs: [e-mail]
    usernames are typically last names, but if the last name is
    4 letters or shorter, the first and middle initials are
    tacked onto the front.

    First initials are frequently used in usernames.  The
    first user with any given last name who gets an account gets just
    his last name as the username.  Every subsequent person with that name
    gets a first initial and then middle initials are used.

    Example:
            username    person
            --------    ------
            murray        Betty Murray, switchboard operator
            dmurray        David Murray, senior
            jmurray        Jeff Murray, senior
            jemurray    Jonathan Murray, freshman


California Inst. of Tech:                Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
    CCO MACHINES (undergrad/grad/general) CCO means campus computing org.
      Unix: mail to [e-mail]
      VMS: Juliet.caltech.edu.  Also romeo,hamlet,iago,portia.
        These are all the same vax cluster.
    Try "whois -h finger.caltech.edu name" to find user names.
    Undergrad Computer Science (also used by a lot of people who don't fit
      this discription. a fairly well used cluster. HP Bobcats running
      Unix).  through.ugcs.caltech.edu (aka through.caltech.edu) is the
      server.  Also, with the same endings: within, above, from, toward,
      around, beyond, over, betwixt, inside, near, besides, beneath,
      opposite, behind, amongst, atop, astride, against.....,
      vex,heckle,irk,harry,grate,bullyrag,plague,torment, molest, and
      badger (the irc server).
    CS department (grad/undergrad/fac...not that well used).
      csvax.cs.caltech.edu (runs unix).

California Polytechnic State Univ./San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly, SLO):
    polyslo.CalPoly.edu

California State University/Chico:     csuchico.edu
California State University/Sacramento: csus.edu

Calvin College: calvin.edu
    Use 'finger [e-mail]' (eg firstname or lastname) to find
      addresses, since userids include parts of student numbers, so are
      hard to guess.
    Students:  flllllnn (first intitial, first 5 of last name,
      last 2 digits of student number; except lastnames starting with
      Dutch prefixes Van Vander Vande etc., where just the v and first 4
      letters of second part of lastname.  Thus Henk Vander Bos, #123456,
      becomes hvbos56, Al Shoemaker, #987654, becomes ashoem54)
    (formerly s0###### where ###### is the student id number)
    Faculty/staff:    [e-mail] where "xxxx" is the standard
                        faculty abbrevation, often lastname

Cambridge University (Cambridge, England):        Created: Sat Mar 27 1993
    Telnet to info.cam.ac.uk and log in as "info"; you then get an online
      information system about Cambridge, which according to rumour can
      help you find people (though I got lost in a maze of twisty
      hypertext when I tried it).

Carnegie Mellon University:                Changed: Tue Mar 30 1993
    Finger @cmu.edu to find people, but sent mail to the specific
      destination mentioned in the Finger entry.  Eventually you should be
      able to mail @cmu.edu, too, but right now it doesn't always work.
    All undergraduate students and some faculty, staff, and graduate
      students: Mail sent to [e-mail] works, even if
      the name is slightly misspelled. Andrew usernames are two initials
      followed by two random characters.  Usernames are arbitrary; to send
      to the username, add a + at the end of the name: [e-mail]
    CS Grad: cs.cmu.edu
    ECE: ece.cmu.edu
    Mathematics: math.cmu.edu
    Psychology: psy.cmu.edu
    Robotics Grad: ri.cmu.edu.  Mail to CS/RI may be sent to
      [e-mail].
    Statistics: stat.cmu.edu
    bitnet.cc.cmu.edu (carnegie.bitnet) is the gateway to bitnet.

Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland:        Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
    Use 'whois -h whois.cwru.edu' to find usernames.  It supports
      substring and soundex searches.  If there is a * beside an address,
      it has not been activated.
    po.cwru.edu is the post office. Every student, professor, and staff
      member has access to email through this machine, as do alumni who
      activated their accounts while students. (Not everybody activates
      their account, however.) User ids are of the form fml##, where ## is
      a number, probably less than 30. The number is omitted if equal to
      1. If there's no middle initial, m is an 'x'.
    skybridge.scl.cwru.edu is the server for the undergraduate Unix lab.
      The user ids on that machine are the full last name, for the most
      part. (Mainly Computer Engineering and EE's on this machine.)
    You can also search the Cleveland Freenet user list for CWRU people
      by any part of the name; telnet to freenet-in-a.cwru.edu, choose
      "Visitor", "Explore the system" and at the prompt, "go directory"
    CS/computer engineering majors may have accounts on the CS cluster;
      finger any part of the name @alpha.ces.cwru.edu.  Userids are
      usually full last name.
    EE majors and those in related courses may have accounts on the EE
      HP/UX cluster; finger @snowhite.eeap.cwru.edu.  Userids are usually
      the first six letters of the last name.

Catholic University of America
    [e-mail] (Internet)
    [e-mail] (BITNet)
    All usernames are limited to 12 characters.  For students, names are 2
    digits followed by lastname.  For faculty and staff, usernames are the
    last name, occasionally with the first initial tacked on at the end.

City University of New York (CUNY):
    cunyvm.bitnet
    Userids:
         Students:  A99SC
         Faculty:  AAASC
         Liasons: LIASC

     Where A is any letter from A to Z
     Where 9 is any number from 1 to 9
     And SC is the initals for the college within City University.

     For example:    HC - Hunter College

Cornell University (Ithaca, New York):
    Anyone associated with Cornell full-time can get a CIT account
    (CIT manages the computing facilities on campus).  Not everybody
    does so.

    As off fall 1992, undergrads are no longer given CornellA or
    Vax5 accounts as they were in the past.  Instead, incoming students
    are given "network ids", which consist of first, middle and last
    initials, plus a number.  Mail should be sent to
    [e-mail].  If the person's name is unique, mail can
    also be sent to [e-mail].

    Email addresses can be searched by using finger on qi.cornell.edu.
    Use variations such as  finger [e-mail]    or
                finger "firstname lastname"@qi.cornell.edu.

    Many upperclassmen have not switched over to the new mail system.
    These students still use mail on cornella.cit.cornell.edu or
    vax5.cit.cornell.edu.  Usernames on these systems are randomly
    generated 3 or 4 character IDs, which do not resemble real names.
    [Actually, they are an (unknown) hash function of the student's
    social security number.]

    Some upperclass
 who have network ids still only check mail
    on cornella and vax5.  If they haven't set up autoforwarding, they
    will not receive mail sent to cornell.edu.

    Undergrads: crux1.cit.cornell.edu, crux2.cit.cornell.edu,
            crux3.cit.cornell.edu, vax5.cit.cornell.edu,
            cornella.cit.cornell.edu

    Faculty and staff may ask to have a 3-character username of their
    choice.  Faculty are typically on cornella and staff on cornellc, but
    there are many exceptions.

    Faculty and administrators who use QuickMail can generally be found
    as [e-mail].

    Postmaster won't give out addresses.  Administrators do not give
    out usernames over the phone.

    Students' street addresses and phone numbers, as well as
    voluntarily-supplied email addresses (faculty and staff only), can
    be looked up in CUINFO.  Telnet to cornellc.cit.cornell.edu, port 300,
    and type DIRECT.

Dakota State University (Madison, SD):

    finger dsuvax.dsu.edu for electronic mail addresses for any
    member of the faculty, staff, or student body.  Addresses
    are typically the first seven characters of the person's last
    name plus the first character of the person's first name.

    Please address questions to [e-mail].

Dartmouth:
    Send mail to [e-mail] (or fname.mi.lname if
    it is a very common name). If the name is ambiguous, you might
    want to finger [e-mail] for info about
    exact mail address. Dartmouth.Edu resolves all mail through
    the Dartmouth Name Directory, which stores preferred email
    addresses for all students, faculty, and staff members.
    If the name is unique, you can even send mail to
    [e-mail]. Most undergrads have accounts on
    mac.dartmouth.edu. Students who don't use any email address
    get the automatic default, @hinman.dartmouth.edu, which
    prints out the email and drops it into campus mail.

Dickinson College (Carlisle, PA):            Created: Wed Mar 24 1993

      [e-mail]     [e-mail]
    Usernames are typically the lastname (truncated at 8 characters)
      suffixed with the first few letters of the firstname when needed for
      uniqueness.
    Examples:    Username    Person
            --------    ------

    guess the userid.

Drew University (Madison, NJ):
    All students, faculty, and staff have accounts on drew.drew.edu

      The mail server is bacchus.acpub.duke.edu. Mail to other machines
      will get forwarded to it. For usernames, people are allowed to
      select their own.  However, the Engineering school has taken to
      setting up accounts for its students, grads, and ugrads, and uses
      initials (fml) with possibly a number in case of name conflict.
      Everyone else could have anything as their userid, though people are

    A very low percentage of students and faculty outside the science
      departments have accounts of any kind.  Those that do are spread out
      on many servers with the fsu.edu domain.  Most new non-science
      accounts are being created on garnet.acns.fsu.edu, though few
      students (or even faculty) are aware that they could get an account.
    To find addresses, if you have a gopher client program, do
        gopher gopher.fsu.edu
      and select the 'Phonebooks (People and Organizations)' menu entry,
      then the 'Quick search of FSU directory (PH)' within that menu.
    Other alternatives include:

        whois "name"
         in the subject line, with no message body
      2: whois -h mailer.fsu.edu "name"

    Usernames are typically the first 8 letters of the person's last name,
    frequently with the first initial or first and middle added at the end
    (e.g., WILLIAMS, MILLERM, JOHNSOAS).  As a result, it would be
    difficult to guess someone's username.  The nodename is GRIN1.bitnet

Iowa State University:    [e-mail]

Johns Hopkins:
    Accounts are located on
        jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu
        jhuvms.hcf.jhu.edu
        jhuvm.hcf.jhu.edu
    All are on bitnet.

    The default userid is of the form lllll_fm or llllll_f. However,
    students may choose whatever userid they wish, which can be just
    about anything.

Kalamazoo College:
    [e-mail]

Kansas State Univ.:                    Changed: Mon Feb 15 1993
    VM/XA: ksuvm.ksu.edu.  All students, faculty, and staff.  This is by
      far the most popular machine.
    KSUVM has a homebrewed finger server that allows you to search
      for KSU students, faculty, and staff.  Usage is
        "finger    lastname,[e-mail]"
      This does a fuzzy lookup so you don't have to get the spelling exact
      and returns the KSUVM userid (if any) plus name, address, phone
      number, major (if student), and classification.  If you know the
      KSUVM userid you can look that up with
        "finger [e-mail]"
      (where "xxx" is the userid you want to find).
    Unix:
      matt.ksu.ksu.edu      All students, faculty, and staff.
      depot.cis.ksu.edu    CS faculty, staff, and grads.
      cygnus.cis.ksu.edu    CS undergrads.
      eece.ksu.edu          EE grads and faculty.
      math.ksu.edu          Math staff, faculty, grads, and some undergrads.

Kenyon College:
    [e-mail]
    Username is usually the last name, sometimes with initials
    tacked onto the end.

LaSalle University (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)
    Host hp800.lasalle.edu
    Faculty, Staff, and student staff: use last name, eg. jones (llllllll)
    Course accounts: xnnn0mmm or xnnnamm, where x is 1-letter course name
      (e.g. c for computer science), nnn is 3 digit course id, 0 or a is
      entered exactly as shown, and mmm or mm is the student's individual
      number within the course)
    Incoming finger (from the Internet) does not yet work.

Lehigh University:
    Undergrads: [e-mail] (ns1.cc.lehigh.edu)
    Help with specific userids can be obtained from
    [e-mail].

    Lehigh has installed "white pages" server on lehigh.edu.
    Fingering for a person's first or last name (case insensitive)
    at lehigh.edu will return all relavant user info (email
    address, full name etc.)

Lenoir-Rhyne College (Hickory, NC 28603):
    E-mail address is [e-mail] or [e-mail].


Louisiana State University (Baton Rouge):
    CS: csvax.csc.lsu.edu
    EE: max.ee.lsu.edu
    SNCC (S/m Network Comp Center): lsu500.sncc.lsu.edu

Macalester College (Saint Paul):

    Every student and faculty member has an account on the college's VAX
    system.  Many students have additional accounts on departmental
    machines.  These instructions are for finding someone on the VAX.
    Finger [e-mail], where userid is of the form
    flllllll for students, and lname for faculty. Numbers are added
    to the end of the userid in case of name conflicts.


McGill University:

     Computer Science profs, grads, and ugrads have mail forwarded from
     [e-mail] to the correct machine.  Currently all
     profs have their accounts on opus.cs.mcgill.ca, and grads and
     undergraduates have accounts on binkley.cs.mcgill.ca.


Memphis State University:
    Undergrads: memstvx1.memst.edu (memstvx1.bitnet)
       memstvx1 is a VAX connected to both internet and bitnet,
           and also serves as the domain name server for memst.edu
           While it does support Finger, it only reports users
           currently logged on.
       All instructional account usernames are dependent on the
           course title  (e.g. MATH1234567 would be an account
           for a Math class)
       Grads and Staff accounts are usually First_InitialLastname
           e.g. JSMITH for John Smith (but there are exceptions)

    Some departments have their own machines, but the majority of
    accounts are on the VAX.

Merrimack College: (inquiries to [e-mail] welcome)
    Faculty: except in extraordinary circumstances [e-mail]
    Undergrads: Aliases exist for most students as
    [e-mail]
    REAL ids are usually [e-mail] with dups
    getting [e-mail]
    For example:
    Jane A. Smith    -> jane.a.smith and [e-mail]
    Joe L. Smith    -> joe.l.smith and [e-mail]

Millsaps College:
        All faculty, staff, and students are [e-mail].
        Userid is produced from first five letters of last name, first two
        initials - merged without spaces.  In case of no middle initial,
        nothing is used.  In case of name conflicts, numbers are added to
        the end to produce unique userid's.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT):
    Finger [e-mail] for info about the person and mail
    address. This is the same info that's used to create the
    MIT phonebook, so it is as accurate. (One can finger
    [e-mail] for instructions in using this service.)

    All students and faculty may get an account from Project
    Athena. Their mail address will be @athena.mit.edu, even
    though athena is a distributed workstation environment.

    Finger @ai.mit.edu for AI graduate students, faculty, and
    some undergrads. Also try @media-lab.mit.edu
    (= media-lab.media.mit.edu) for the MIT Media Lab.
    Try @lcs.mit.edu for Laboratory of Computer Science faculty, staff,
    and students.

    Also, MIT math professors can be found on math.mit.edu (a.k.a.
    bourbaki.mit.edu; however, this information is already accessible
    from fingering mit.edu information.

    MITVMA.MIT.EDU is the gateway to bitnet.

Michigan State Univ.:
    @frith.egr.msu.edu @eecae.ee.msu.edu, @kira.ee.msu.edu
    @cpsin.cps.msu.edu @cpsvax.cps.msu.edu
    All college of Engineering students and faculty (includes CPS
    students) that have requested an account will have the address:
        [e-mail] ([e-mail])
    where "user" is usually the last name, but is often some other
    combination of first name, initials, etc to provide uniqueness
    throughout the college.

    In Addition, CPS
 and faculty can receive mail at
        [e-mail]
    with the rules for "user" being the same as above.  As far as I know,
    the same user-id is used on both "egr.msu.edu" and "cps.msu.edu".

    General EMAIL accounts are available on Computer Center machines,
    usually the IBM3090.
       [e-mail] [e-mail]
    and also the Convex
       [e-mail]
    I don't know what the rules are for determining user IDs for Computer
    Center machines.

    MSU Information is [phone].


Michigan Technological University:
    mtus5.cts.mtu.edu or mtus5.bitnet
        most
students have accounts with the format FMLASTNA
        First initial-Middle initial-LASTNAMe  (8 letters total)
    finger does not work on these machines.

Minnesota State University System:
    Faculty (all campuses): [e-mail]
    Faculty/Students (Mankato State Univ.): [e-mail]

Mississippi State univ.  Mail in the form fml#@ra.msstate.edu or
            fml#@isis.msstate.edu..  The Number will normally range
            1 and 4, it stands for the student number (First one with
            given set of initials to apply for internet access)

Mount Holyoke College:
    "mhc." may be omitted:
        a.  [e-mail]
        b.  [e-mail]
        c.  [e-mail]

Mount Royal:
    mtroyal.ab.ca
    Student's userids are of the form llllll#### where # are the
    first four digits of the student id. Staff userids are of the
    form flastname.

Entries beginning with N may be found in the next posting
(file .../college-email/faq2.text via anonymous FTP).

This is the second third of the summary of how to find email addresses
for undergraduate and graduate students, faculty and staff at various
colleges and universities.

;;; ********************************
;;; Email Database: N-T, U to Univ of
;;; ********************************


New Jersey Institute of Technology:
    Newark NJ 07021
    CS PhD
Studs: [e-mail]
    Grad Studs:   [e-mail] (ultrix), [e-mail] (vms)

New Mexico Institute Of Mining And Technology:
    Try finger [e-mail] or finger [e-mail].  Jupiter is
    the main server;  CS students generally have accounts on
    minos.nmt.edu.  Accounts generally seem to be of the form FLLLLLLL.

New Mexico State Univ.:
    Virtually all email addresses are of the form [e-mail]. Finger
    is not well supported. Mail to postmaster should help. (Also, if you
    have an account, there is a postmaster program.)

New York University (NYU)
    Addresses for students at NYU are fml####@acfcluster.nyu.edu, where f,
    m, l are first, middle, last initials and #### are the last four
    digits of the social security number.  All students and staff can get
    limited mail accounts by requesting them.  Some users have nicknames:
    lastname, or lllllf, or lllllff.

North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC:
    Whois server on gyro.cc.ncsu.edu also accepts requests via finger
    All whois entries have Snail addresses, some have e-mail.

North Dakota Network
    This section describes how to find email addresses for students who
    attend Public Colleges and Universities in North Dakota.

    ND
HECN PLAINS  (@plains.bitnet) -or- (@plains.nodak.edu)
    This is a Unix system.  All userids are given out according to last
    name or possibly a first initial added in front.  You are able to
    finger these accounts.

    ND HECN CMS  (@ndsuvm1.bitnet) -or- (@vm1.nodak.edu)
    This is a VM/SP (CMS) system. Userids are a bit more complicated here...
    The ND
HECN (No-Dak Higher Education Computer Network) consists of the
    following schools..  Their 2-letter school code follows.
       Bismarck State College (BJ)      North Dakota State University (NU)
       University of North Dakota (UD)  Dickinson State College (DS)
       Williston State College (WS)     Bottineau State College (BT)
       Lake Region Community College (LR)  Valley City State College (VC)
       Mayville State College (MV)      Minot State College (MN)
       State School of Science (SS)
    Userids given out prior to (approximately) August 1991 are assigned a
    userid according to the following:  Userids are in the form of
    LL######.  LL is the "School Code" (see above).  The #'s are the first
    6 digits of the user's NAID number.

    Userids given out after August 1991 are assigned according to last
    name, or with part of their first name in front if the account is
    already taken.  They are trying to give you the same userid as your
    plain's id (if you have one). Also, people with the 'old id' can
    request to have their account renamed to the new format.  You are able
    to finger accounts on ndsuvm1, but as of 02-26-92 student names are
    not yet available to finger. (It will tell you if the account at least
    exists tho).  Faculty/Staff names are available to finger.  Each
    college has an 'administrative' account with the form LL0ADMIN.  (LL =
    School Code).  I don't know if they will give out userids, but it's
    worth a try.

    UND
School of Medicine: try [e-mail] for
    staff and faculty;  no student accounts as of Fall 1992.  For help
    finding someone, try 'finger' or contact
    [e-mail]

Northeastern:
    The engineering postmaster is [e-mail].
    For other mail, try [e-mail]

Northern Arizona University (Flagstaff, Arizona, USA)
    You can use any of the following ways to locate people at Northern
    Arizona University.  If one doesn't work, try the next.  NOTE: not
    everyone at NAU has an electronic mailbox.
    1. finger [e-mail]
       where PERSON is any part of a person's name that you know.  You may
       have to use quotes, as in: finger "Jane Doe"@info.nau.edu. This is a
       "white pages" style database.  For more help on this system: finger
       @info.nau.edu
    2. mail [e-mail]
       where FIRSTNAME and LASTNAME are the person you're trying to reach.
       You may need to specify FIRSTNAME.MIDDLEINITIAL.LASTNAME
    3. send mail to the site postmaster:  mail [e-mail]
       Some subdomains have postmasters e.g. [e-mail] for
       the Computer Science and Engineering department.

Northwestern:                        Changed: Tue Feb 23 1993
    General e-mail services are shared by casbah.acns.nwu.edu
      (129.105.113.52) and merle.acns.nwu.edu (129.105.113.57).  Merle is
      in full production as of the beginning of 1993, although there are
      not yet that many accounts on it.  This will change.  Both Casbah
      and Merle support finger requests.
    If you have access to a PH electronic database client, you can use
      ns.nwu.edu for a ph-nameserver.  Users must personally register an
      e-mail address in this database for a query to provide one -- it is
      not done automatically.  If you do not have access to a PH client,
      the default PH-based address is <[e-mail]> where the default
      alias is f-lastname (first initial-last name).  Many people choose
      to remove the hyphen or replace the default alias with their
      initials, or just about anything else.  The default is a good thing
      to try, because if it fails for any reason, PH responds with fairly
      complete information, in plain english, including other possible
      aliases, if there is a conflict.

Norwegian Institute of Technology: see University of Trondheim

NCSU:
    Faculty/Staff: accounts on adm.csc.ncsu.edu. No specific naming
    convention for faculty accounts.

    Graduate Students: accounts on druid.csc.ncsu.edu. login names are
    gr-xxx where xxx are the initials of the person. However, using the
    person first or last name will also work.

    All engineers have accounts on eos.ncsu.edu

    Most undergraduate id's are [e-mail]

    College of textiles comp. center: [e-mail]

Oakland University (Rochester, MI)            Changed: Thu Mar 25 1993
    Hosts: vela.acs.oakland.edu, argo.acs.oakland.edu
    Many departments maintain their own systems but their users usually
      have accounts on either vela or argo as well.
    Userids: Students: FMlastname   Faculty: Lastname
    Finger: on vela, use any portion of the name.  On argo, you can only
      finger the userid.


Oberlin (Oberlin, Ohio):                Changed: Tue Mar 30 1993
    Many students and faculty have accounts on ocvaxa, which can be
      reached as ocvaxa.cc.oberlin.edu. Administrative staff members have
      accounts on ocvaxc, which can be reached as ocvaxc.cc.oberlin.edu.
      This is an internet-only site.
    Student User IDs are of the form: S+first & last initials + last 4
      digits of the student ID (e.g. SDG1234)
    Faculty IDs are of the form: F + lastname.
    Best bet is to send mail to [e-mail]
    CS
/faculty: occs.cs.oberlin.edu (student usernames are mostly
      last names, occasionally with a first initial to disambiguate;
      faculty and staff are generally 3 initials).
    You can also send mail to postmaster.

Ohio State University:
    Faculty, Staff, Graduate students: [e-mail]
    CS
Students, Faculty and Staff: cis.ohio-state.edu, with
    username lastname, fllllll, llllll-f, fml, firstname or lllll-fm.
    Faculty and staff are mostly first or last name.

    Also, some students have their accounts aliased so that
    you can send mail/finger to lastname.#@osu.edu
    where # is required and is anything from 1 on up to infinity
    (these numbers can get very large for names like Smith, i.e. in
    the thousands). "whois -h osu.edu" and telneting to osu.edu should
        also work.

Ohio University (Athens OH):
    CS (UNIX): [e-mail]
    CS (VMS): oucsduce.cs.ohiou.edu
    EE (grad
): [e-mail], @redskins.ent.ohiou.edu
    Undergrads (class accounts): OUACCVMB.BITNET
    Faculty: OUACCVMA.BITNET

Oklahoma State/Stillwater:
    [e-mail]

Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology:
    Only Graduate Students. Their host, ogccse, is @cse.ogc.edu.
    This recently changed to cse.ogi.edu.

Oregon State:
    CS: mist.cs.orst.edu, prism.cs.orst.edu

Oxford University (Oxford, England):            Changed: Sat Mar 27 1993
    Telnet to info.ox.ac.uk, which presents you with an online information
      system, one of whose subsystems is an electronic mail directory
      showing all authorized users who are willing to be so listed.
    Host: vax.ox.ac.uk

Penn State Univ.:                    Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
    Domain: psu.edu
    The Electronic Bulletin Board contains, among many other things, the
      entire student, staff, and faculty directory.  To use EBB, connect
      to psuvm.psu.edu from an Internet-connected site using tn3270 (You
      can also telnet to cac3270.psu.edu if you do not have a 3270
      emulator, but will have to supply a terminal type).  After the
      initial logon screen appears, type the RETURN key and the screen
      will clear.  Type "ebb" and hit RETURN, and you will get the
      top-level EBB menu, one item of which is "DIRECTORY".  Typing "dir"
      and RETURN will select the university directory.  The rest should be
      obvious, but for a couple of other points: EBB assumes you're using
      an IBM terminal, and displays help in the form of PF keys to move
      around, etc.  A simple "+" serves to scroll ahead, and "-" moves
      backward. Typing the RETURN key alone will back up one level of
      menus, so typing RETURN repeatedly will ultimately close the
      connection.
    Computer Science: cs.psu.edu (UNIX), crayola.cs.psu.edu (Ultrix)
    Math: math.psu.edu

Polytechnic University (New York)

        W = At login: prompt typing in 'who' will list parties logged on
    All system names end with ".poly.edu", e.g.  'finger @Poly-TS.poly.edu'
    Most login names begin with first initial then first seven character
      of last name.  Most undergrad users would be on george, gracie,
      ishara, tasha and worf systems.

Pomona College (Claremont, CA):
    Internet: [e-mail] (bitnet [e-mail])

        Usernames are the first character of the first name, followed
    by the full last name (John Doe would be JDOE).  In case of conflicts,
    the middle initial is used between first and last name. (If JDOE
    already has an account, James A. Doe would be JADOE).  Finger works.

Portland State University (Portland, Oregon):
    Students: odin.cc.pdx.edu

Princeton:
    Undergrads: phoenix.princeton.edu, pucc.princeton.edu (VM)
    pucc.bitnet. (Both phoenix and pucc are now fingerable.)
    CS Grad Studs/Faculty: cs.princeton.edu
    CogSci Lab: clarity.princeton.edu
    Math Dept: math.princeton.edu

    You can also try fingering at princeton.edu.

    Some people also have accounts on gauguin.princeton.edu

    Usernames are usually FMLLLLLL.

Purdue:
    At Purdue, engineering students (undergrad/grad) have accounts
    on machines on the Engineering Computer Network (ECN).  There
    are hundreds of machines, but the main ones are named according
    to a fairly discernible system, i.e.

    e?.ecn.purdue.edu = Electrical    c?.ecn.purdue.edu = Civil
    k?.ecn.purdue.edu = Chemical    g?.ecn.purdue.edu = Nuclear/Aero
    m?.ecn.purdue.edu = Mechanical    p?.ecn.purdue.edu = Potter Library

    In each case, "?" is one of 'a', 'b', 'c', etc..check your
    local host tables or nameserver for a current list.
    Undergrads usually end up on the 'n' series of machines... en,
    mn, cn, and gn.

    Effective 10/16/90, mail to ecn hosts need only be labeled
    with the local domain. For example, [e-mail]. Mail
    sent there will automatically be forwarded to the users mailbox.

    Usernames on ecn machines are assigned according to user
    preferences. Try the usual (initials, fllllll, first name,
    last name, etc.). You can send mail to ecn.purdue.edu (which
    will forward it to the appropriate machine). Also, if your
    finger supports arguments, doing a 'finger -l lastname' will
    find people by name regardless of account.

        Other students (CS, math/stat, and science majors) usually have
        accounts on machines operated by the Purdue University Computing
        Center (PUCC).  These machines are all in the ".cc.purdue.edu"
        subdomain.  Many usernames are based on the user's last name and
        initials, but many still use three letter/number combinations which
        have nothing to do with the user's name.  Computing center staff
        usernames are either a name chosen by the user, or a three-letter
        combination beginning with "a".  Additionally, "finger" with a
        name argument will find all people with that name, so try
        "finger -l lastname".

    Students are found on the 'instructional' machines; the
    distribution of major courses is approximately like this:

    expert  = low-level courses for non CS or EE majors, some CS courses
    sage    = more low-level courses, first semester CS
    feserve = freshman engineering courses and some CS courses
    sonata  = some Math and CS courses
    mentor  = most other CS courses

    Students not in one of these courses may still have an account on
    one of these machines, since there are many smaller groups to
    which accounts are issued.  Also, any Purdue student may obtain
    a student personal account on one of these machines.

    Research users are found scattered around all the PUCC
    machines, but mace, boiler, and j are the most likely places
    to find them. Staff can always be reached through 'staff'
    regardless of where they have their accounts.

    In addition to those, there is an IBM mainframe which is found
    on the Internet as vm.cc.purdue.edu or on BITNET as PURCCVM.
    It is used primarily by research users and Computer Technology
    majors.  Some student personal accounts are also on this machine
    Usernames are either based on the person's real name or Xyyy
    where yyy is a 3-character PUCC ID.

    Graduate CS students are found on machines in the ".cs.purdue.edu"
    subdomain, including "arthur", "mordred", "merlin", and other
    machines named after characters from the Arthurian legends.
    Mail to cs.purdue.edu usually works.

    Veterinary students are found on machines in the ".vet.purdue.edu"
    subdomain; these machines are named after animals or other vet
    terms e.g. "dog", "goat", "pharm"...Agricultural/Agronomy Engineering
    students are found on machines in the ".acn.purdue.edu" subdomain;
    these include "harvest", "barn", etc...Some folks in chemistry
    can be found on machines in the ".chem.purdue.edu" subdomain;
    many of these are named after items from the Dr. Who series,
    e.g. "doctor", "tardis", "k9"...Some folks in psychology can be
    found on machines in the ".psych.purdue.edu" subdomain; these
    machines are named after Latin/South American countries,
    e.g. "peru", "brazil", "mexico", "panama"...Some folks in
    biology can be found on machines in the ".bio.purdue.edu" subdomain;
    some of these machines are named after Tolkien characters,
    e.g. "bilbo", "gollum"...Some folks in physics can be found on
    machines in the ".physics.purdue.edu" subdomain; these machines
    are named after physicists, e.g. "maxwell", "newton"... The
    Krannert School of Management is in the .mgmt subdomain, with
    hosts zeus and hera. Most management students will be found on
    a PUCC machine.

Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology: Terre Haute, IN
        There are three major systems on which students are given accounts:

          - CS department network: cs.rose-hulman.edu
                Any student can get an account upon request.
        Student usernames are consistent across the systems, in the form
        llllllfm.  Mail addresses of the form: [e-mail]
        are also accepted; mail is directed to a preferred address.

Rutgers:                    Changed: Mon Feb 15 1993
    Rutgers has a whitepages server, so you can do whois -h
    whitepages.rutgers.edu "fname lname" to find email addresses.  If the
    user has an email address it will explicitly indicate "Email:".  The
    "Userid" field is *NOT* an email address. (Note that not all people
    with email addresses have put them in the directory.)

    Other ways to find email addresses at Rutgers: There are many

    Stanford has implemented a finger service for its whois database.  Try
    "finger [e-mail]" first -- most
students and lots of staff
    and faculty now have their e-mail addresses registered with this
    service.  Name can be lastname, or for better results flllll or

    Alternatively,
this service can be accessed via whois:

    whois -h stanford.edu name

SUNY/Binghamton: (Binghamton, NY)            Changed: Sat Mar 27 1993
    In order to contact someone at SUNY-Binghamton you'll have to give
      them a call; there is no way of figuring out a student's address
      given their name, as the mapping is random (sequential in the order
      people apply for accounts).
    Undergrads: [e-mail] where X is a letter
      depending on what year they got their account: 91/92: A 92/93: B(?);
      NNNNN are random digits, almost
always starting with 0; HOSTNAME is
      either bingvaxa (VMS), bingsuns (SunOS), bingvmb (IBM), or bingtjw
      (IBM).  Older userids are of the form vyNNNN@bingvaxa, and
      bgNNNN@bingvmb.
    Interested undergrads tend to have accounts on bingvaxa, though those
      in Math/CS classes will have accounts on bingsuns.
    An e-mail directory for some faculty and staff is available;
        telnet to bingvmb.cc.binghamton.edu

        4 alphanumerics representing the rest of the social
        security number.
    General Computing Center (students): [e-mail]

    ubvms is a VAX, and most students had accounts there.
    Recently, however, more people are getting accounts on acsu,
    the Unix system.

    Engineering Students: [e-mail]
    EE Students: [e-mail]
    CS
Dept: [e-mail] ([e-mail])

    The usernames for the acsu, cs (and possibly eng) seems to be formed
    by something appoximating the following rules:
      1) If lastname is <=8 character,
          1.1) if it does not already exist as a username,
              then username=lastname. (eg. smith)
          1.2) else
              username is first initial + lastname (eg. jsmith)
      2) If lastname is too long, and a middle initial exists,
          then username is initials (eg. jcs)
      3) If lastname is too long but no middle initial exists,
          then username is the first 5 chars of the last name, a -, and
          then the initial. (eg. James Smithenson would be smith-j).

    The cs and acsu domains share mail alias files, so mail to a username
    at either cs.buffalo.edu or acsu.buffalo.edu will arrive at the user
    in the same mailbox.

    There are also geog (Geography), arch (Architecture) and med
    (Medicine) domains.

Syracuse Univ.:
         CompSci Grads/Faculty: top.cis.syr.edu
             Many CompSci graduates and faculty have accounts on this
             machine; the usual username pattern is "[e-mail]"
    Some faculty and staff:
       SUADMIN.bitnet (suadmin.syr.edu)
         Other students and faculty:
              mailbox.syr.edu
            sunrise.syr.edu (VAX 8820/VMS)
            suvm.acs.syr.edu    (IBM 3090/CMS)
    suvm.acs.syr.edu and sunrise.syr.edu are run by the SU Computing
      Services. Undergrads usually have accounts on sunrise (which is a
      VAX VMS cluster). Both hosts are on bitnet as suvm and sunrise.
          The pattern for all these hosts is: first-initial + middle-initial +
      as much of the last name as possible.

         White-Pages: "finger [e-mail]" will search the online catalog
      white pages for a registered user that has his/her information public.
      Mutliple matches produces multiple output.  "finger @syr.edu" for more
      details.  The same information is available via a BITNET directory
      server ([e-mail]), through PSI's X.500 project, and through
      whois -h syr.edu
         Phone Book: The Syracuse Phone book has the same e-mail addresses as
      are available in the White pages, but as it's only printed once a
      year they are usually out of date.  Dialing [phone] is campus
      information;  if the userid exists in the phonebook, the people
      there will be happy to give it out.
         [e-mail]  -- If the username exists, and that person
      doesn't mind having it handed out, this userid will check into it
      beforehand and reply via mail.

Swarthmore:
        All Students/Faculty/Staff: [e-mail], where
      F is the user's first initial, and LLLLLL is the first six letters
      of their last name.  A '1' (one) is appended in most
cases, though
      for duplicates the number is incremented. To find people, send mail
      to postmaster. You can also finger people by their last name.
        CS: Usually, [e-mail]
    Engineering: usually [e-mail]

    [The following is the old info, which still holds for some people:
     All Students: [e-mail], where xxx is the
        student's initials, YY the year of graduation.
        In case of duplicates, extra "x" are added between
        the initials and year. If there are triplicates, they
        keep on adding x's. You can also use
        campus.swarthmore.edu (swarthmr.bitnet). If they have
        no middle name, use "_" instead of the middle initial.
        To find people, send mail to postmaster.
     Faculty and staff have usernames as their last names on
     campus.swarthmore.edu.]

Texas A&M University:

    All
 can have an account on a VAX cluster, a heterogeneous
    set of UNIX boxes, or a VM/CMS machine. Probably less than
    30% of the student body (40K
) takes advantage of this. The
    format of the usernames is FML#### where fml are the initials and ####
    is the last four digits of the SSN.  If a student has no middle
    initial then '0' (Zero) is used.  These domain is "tamu.edu" and the
    machine could be any of several choices like venus, rigel, summa,
    sigma, etc.
        General Unix:         tamuts.tamu.edu, tamaix.tamu.edu,
                    tamsun.tamu.edu
        General VAX/VMS:     zeus.tamu.edu, venus.tamu.edu,
                    summa.tamu.edu, sigma.tamu.edu,
                    rigel.tamu.edu
                General VM/CMS:         tamvm1.tamu.edu

    Finding addresses:
        Try fingering [e-mail] or [e-mail].
        (tamu.edu uses ph, the CSO Nameserver)

    The computer science department's domain is "cs.tamu.edu".  The
    statistics dept is "stat.tamu.edu".  The username format on these
    machines is usually fffffffl or flllllll.  Some old accounts may have
    first names or last names only.
    The math department's domain is math.tamu.edu.

    There are about a million other departmental machines with varying
    names but I believe they are all in the form "xxx.tamu.edu".

Tufts University:
    tufts.edu, tufts.bitnet

United States Air Force Academy
    Cadets: [e-mail]
    Computer science: host kirk.usafa.af.mil
    Finger works at both sites.

Univ. of Aalborg: @iesd.auc.dk

Univ. of Aarhus (Dennmark)                Created: Wed Mar 24 1993
    Computer Science: @daimi.aau.dk

Univ. of Akron:

    Academic Machines: Faculty, Grad, Undergrad
        vax1.cc.uakron.edu (vax, so finger works)
        vm1.cc.uakron.edu (vms, so finger doesn't work)
        vm1 is also known as akronvm.bitnet
    Most students and faculty have accounts on either of these machines.
    Usernames are usually r1 for faculty, r2 for graduate
    students, and r3 for undergrads, followed by first, middle,
    and last initials. (If the student doesn't have a middle
    initial it is omitted.) Naming conflicts are resolved by
    adding a digit to the end of the userid (e.g., 1, 2, ... 9).

    for example: mine is [e-mail]...

    Engineering Machines: Grad, undergrad
        file01.ecgf.uakron.edu (unix, but no fingering)
        file02.ecgf.uakron.edu (unix, but no fingering)
    Userid's normally begin with the first two letters of the
    person's major (el = electrical, me = mechanical) followed by
    4 digits to make 6 digit userid. Undergrads are given id's of
    form bsxxxx.

    Math Department machines: Faculty, Grad, Undergrad
        vonneuman.cs.uakron.edu (unix and fingering works)
    Only math students or students enrolled in courses offered by
    math dept have accounts. finger works with first,lastnames or
    userid's.

    userid's for grads and faculty are by their last names.
    undergrads and class accounts begin with sun followed by three
    digits making 6 letter userid.

    Mechanical Engineering Machines: Grad,faculty
    Any grad
engineering student can have an account.
    Finger doesn't work for these machines.
        starshine.mech.uakron.edu
        sunshine.mech.uakron.edu
        moonshine.mech.uakron.edu
    Userid's are first names.

    Help: [e-mail]

Univ. of Alaska
    Bitnet: [e-mail]  Internet: [e-mail]
    Usernames are of the form CTFMLN where:
    C=Campus
        A is U of A Anchorage
        D
is for Kodiak College
        F is for U of A Fairbanks
        I is for Kenai Peninsula College
        J is for U of A Southeast (in Juneau)
        K is for U of A Southeast (Ketchikan branch)
        P is for Mat-Su College (in Palmer)
        T is for U of A Southeast (Sitka branch)
        V is for Prince William Sound Community College (in Valdez)
    T is for usage type.
        S is for an undergraduate student
        T is for a graduate student
        F is for faculty
        N is for staff.
        X is for consultants
    FML is the initials of first, middle, and last names, respectively.
    N is a number, and is only given (and then it starts from one) if
      there are more than one person at the same school with the same
      status and initials
    O is the computer that the person is on.
      1 is Southeast and affiliated schools (don't know C letters for them)
      2 is Anchorage and its affiliates (Kodiak, Kenai, Mat-Su, and Prince
        William Sound)
      3 is Fairbanks and affiliates
    However, a person with enough access can use other campus' computers.

Univ. of Arizona:
    Historically computer access at the UA had been limited to students,
    faculty and staff who had either a job, or a class which required a
    computer. Recently the Unix Users Group at the University of Arizona
    began providing General Access Systems for no charge to UA students.

    The machines are configured from donated, loaned and retired equipment
    and managed by volunteer effort. As a volunteer effort, there is not
    time to respond to postmaster requests for usernames so please do not
    send address requests to the postmaster. Use the finger utility
    instead; it will respond to "real name" requests (in the following
    "gas" means "gas.uug.arizona.edu"):

    finger -l kennedy@gas gotobed@gas |grep "Login name:"
    Login name: bjk                   In real life: Brian J. Kennedy
    Login name: kennedys              In real life: Steven A Kennedy
    Login name: jgotobed              In real life: Joe Gotobed

    While we are attempting to support a rational username policy, it is
    not foolproof as this example shows. If the finger info returns
    nothing, the person has no account on these systems.

    Due to limited disk capacity, ( < 1Mb per account) the usage is
    limited primarily to internet news, telnet, ftp and email.  There are
    currently about 500
 and a capacity of about 3,000 accounts.
    While accounts are currently limited to students, we expect to provide
    access to the general staff & faculty sometime in the spring of 1993.

    There are nearly a hundred subdomains at the University, each with
    their own access policies, username assignments and email schemes. If
    the finger utility does not reveal the address of a friend, a phone
    call to them asking for their address is probably the most efficient
    way to discover it.

    Many faculty and staff are on ccit.arizona.edu.  If someone tells you
    they are on "cosy" or "icosy," forget it; you can't send mail to them
    (although they can send mail to you).

    Undergrads in Computer Science are on caslon.cs.arizona.edu.
    Undergrads in Engineering are on a cluster of Suns; try
    evax2.engr.arizona.edu.

    Grad
students and Faculty are usually given accounts on their
    department/college systems.  Try math.arizona.edu;
    physics.arizona.edu; mis.arizona.edu; cs.arizona.edu, etc.

    In the School of Business, you can try FirstinitialLastname (e.g.
    RReagan) @bpa.arizona.edu with very good success.  If
    FirstinitialLastname is ambiguous, a username might be
    LastnameFirstinitial instead. (Main site was mis.arizona.edu until
    late 1992).  On BITNET send mail to [e-mail]

    Arizona.EDU is the campus mail gateway, but only those who ask get
    aliases on Arizona.EDU.  You could try [e-mail] if you
    suspect the person you want uses EMAIL a lot.

Univ. of Atlanta: @auc.UUCP

Univ. of British Columbia (Vancouver, BC, Canada)
    Domain ubc.ca.  Public accounts might be on unixg.ubc.ca.
    Computer Science is cs.ubc.ca

University of Calgary
        General (Students/Faculty): @acs.ucalgary.ca
    CS students/faculty: @cpsc.ucalgary.ca
    for all faculty,  staff,  grads,  undergrads
    - often last name, or first name, or initials. or last name
    followed by initials.

Univ. of California/Berkeley:                Changed: Tue Apr 13 1993
    Undergraduates in General: uclink.berkeley.edu or ocf.berkeley.edu
    Faculty, staff, and graduate students can also get accounts on
      ocf.berkeley.edu.
    Undergrad CS/EE, 1st Year Grad: cory.berkeley.edu (This is for
      undergrad juniors and seniors and first year graduate students. Most
      other graduate students have their own workstations. For freshmen
      and sophomores, one must look for a class
account or ocf public
      cluster. Undergrads now have to pay for accounts on cory, so fewer
      people will be using it.)
    First Year Graduate CS students: try cory.berkeley.edu or
      xcssun.berkeley.edu. antipodes.berkeley.edu
    CS Faculty, Grads, Staff: cs.berkeley.edu (aliases mail address)
    CS Grad Students: snake.cs.berkeley.edu.  Good systems to try are (all
      .cs.berkeley.edu or .berkeley.edu) sprite, harmony, sequoia, larch,
      robotics, postgres, and ginger. tenet.icsi.berkeley.edu also has
      some CS grad students on it.  Many machines in the department are
      now foo.cs.berkeley.edu, but not all are.
    EE Faculty: esvax, ic, cad, or a workstation
    Janus will be going away soon, as will ucbarpa.  Many csgrads will
      have mail aliases on cs.berkeley.edu, which will eventually support
      finger.  Systems to try for grad students are (all .berkeley.edu):
      sprite, harmony, sequoia, yew, larch, robotics, postgres, and ginger.
      Soon, these will be moved into the cs.berkeley.edu subdomain instead
      of berkeley.edu subdomain (ie, you'd finger @sprite.cs.berkeley.edu).
      This will happen soon, but hasn't happened yet.
    Names for the above accounts are usually, but not always, combinations
      of the user's real first, middle and last names and/or initials.
      However, finger will search the "real name" field as well as the
      account name.
    There are many class accounts (which all students get). These are
      found on web.berkeley.edu,bard.berkeley.edu, and
      xcssun.berkeley.edu. zooey, buddy, franny, and seymour too, except
      they're being retired. Danube, amazon, congo, po, and volga and a
      cluster of stars (named after stars) are supposed to be the
      replacements. web and buddy hold classes that freshmen and
      sophomores often take. seymour and franny are often used for classes
      for business majors.
    Class account usernames are typically cnnn-mxx or ennn-mxx, where 'c'
      or 'e' denotes CS or EE, nnn is the course number, m is the section
      number (not always used), and xx are two letters.
    Statistics class accounts are of the form s#xxxx, where # is the class
      number and xxxx is some string of alphabetic characters. These
      accounts live on gandalf.berkeley.edu. Statistics cluster computers
      are named after Tolkien characters.
    qal.berkeley.edu is used for courses in "practical computer use"
      (taught by the anthropology department).  Account names are 193xxx,
      where xxx is the last name of the user.
    Math (Graduate and Faculty): math.berkeley.edu
    Stat Department: stat.berkeley.edu
    Physics Grads and Undergrads: physics.berkeley.edu
    Mech. E Profs & Grads: euler.berkeley.edu, tycho.berkeley.edu
    Public Cluster (some undergrads): ocf.berkeley.edu
    School of Education:  soe.berkeley.edu
    Other machines to try: ucbvax.berkeley.edu
    garnet.berkeley.edu and violet.berkeley.edu are the most
likely place
      for a pay-for-use account. Some departments maintain accounts on
      these machines for faculty, though, so these machines are the place
      to try for faculty affiliated with departments that have no real
      computing facilities. Almost anyone on campus can pay for an account
      on these machines.
    Some of the class
accounts are also on congo. Generally addresses for
      the first semester classes are:
      CS 60A - c60a-__@danube
      CS 3 - c3-1a__@amazon or c3-1b__@congo
    School administration has set up the computer uclink.berkeley.edu, for
      staff or students who want an account (they can keep it for the time
      that they are there).  It's supposedly on a pilot program, but many
      students are getting accounts there.
    Also, people can look for staff people on whois.berkeley.edu.
    [e-mail] should be considered as a last
      choice when looking from someone electronically.

Univ. of California/Davis:
    @ucdavis.edu -- works if you know their account name
       userids are of the form fmlllll.
    @clover.ucdavis.edu -- works for anyone in the CS department
        whois -h ucdavis.edu <name>
    CS: [e-mail]
    Engineering/CS: [e-mail]
            or [e-mail]

Univ. of California/Irvine:
    CS Undergrads: bonnie.ics.uci.edu
        Mail sometimes restricted; policy has changed several times.
        Userid usually FLLLLLLL (8 char max); sometimes FFFFFFFL.
    CS Grads/Staff/Faculty: ics.uci.edu
        Faculty userids are usually their last names, sometimes
        initials, a few firstname only.  Grads usually FLLLLLLL,
        some lastname only.  Staff sometimes firstname, sometimes lastname.
    Other departments: mostly grads; userids usually lastname.
       Biology dept: sanger.bio.uci.edu
       EE: balboa.eng.uci.edu
       Physics dept: skid.ps.uci.edu
       Social sciences: ss.uci.edu
    Try fingering [e-mail] (for XX=ics,sanger.bio, etc.)

    There are two types of accunts on orion.oac.uci.edu:
    (1) Staff in the Office of Academic Computing
    (2) Students
    Staff userids on orion are usually FLLLLLLL, 8 char max.  The student
    accounts on orion are different, though.  Any student can get an orion
    account, but not a lot do.  The userids for these accounts are seven
    characters as follows: first "ea", then two characters representing
        major and grad
vs. undergrad status, respectively,
    (e.g., i = information & computer science, u = undergrad),
    then three random digits.  Non-staff orion users tend to use
    their accounts infrequently because of usage limits.

Univ. of California/Los Angeles (UCLA):
    CS: @cs.ucla.edu @oahu.cs.ucla.edu
      MATH: @math.ucla.edu, @sonia.math.ucla.edu, @oak.math.ucla.edu
        (graduate students, staff, faculty)
    EE grads & faculty: ee.ucla.edu (network of RTs and SUNs
       running unix. Each machine has the name of a famous
       engineer:  watt.ee.ucla.edu, joule.ee.ucla.edu, etc)
       Usernames vary; try fname, lastname,...
    AGSM: @agsm.ucla.edu  @uclagsm
          (Anderson Graduate School of Management)
          All of students , staffs and faculty have their user ID.
          User ID: FLLLLLLL (max 8 characters)
    Class Accounts: pic.ucla.edu (PIC = program in computing)
       These get cleared every quarter. Account names are usually
       the course number followed by three letters chosen by the student.
       If you finger @laguna.pic.ucla.edu, you get more detailed
       info, such as when the user last logged on, etc.
    Engineering: seas.ucla.edu  This is a server for a network for
       the school of engineering and applied sciences. Any engineering
       graduate student can get an account on it, and many undergrads
       have accounts on it for classes. This machine has access to
       USENET.
    Anybody: oac.ucla.edu  An IBM 3090.  Anyone in UCLA can get an
       open access account on this to send mail, etc.  Account
       names on this machine are terribly cryptic (such as IZZYR33).

Univ. of California/Santa Cruz:
    Undergrads: ucscb.ucsc.edu
    Other hosts include ucsc{c-e,o}.ucsc.edu, ucscvm.ucsc.edu, etc.  All
    these hosts (except for ucscb) are on bitnet as the first part of
    their domain name.
    A new host, cats.ucsc.edu, has been added as the mail address for
    UCSC's version of Athena. Users can be fingered by username, first
    name, or last name. Undergrads, grads, faculty, and some staff may
    have accounts on cats.  Users choose their own IDs, so you must use
    finger to get an account name.
    As of late fall 1992, the name space of cats and ucscb have been
    merged, so that almost
all students have the same userid on both
    systems.  However, there are (and will likely always be) separate
    accounts on the 2 systmes that use the same name - so there will
    remain differences between mailing to SomeAddress@cats and
    SomeAddress@ucscb.

Univ. of California/San Diego (UCSD):
    The primary mail gateway is ucsd.edu. This machine also has a
    smart finger program, which will look up names that sound similar
    to the one you fingered. Just "finger [e-mail]".

    Most usernames are the initial of the first name followed by the
    last name, truncated to 8 characters, ie. "[e-mail]", but
    this is not always the case (because most people don't like their
    names truncated).

    Machine sdcc13 houses the student personal accounts at present, but
    mail to ucsd.edu will reach (almost) everyone on sdcc13.ucsd.edu.

    If the person is a graduate student, faculty member, or staff
    member try: weber (social sciences), cogsci (guess), bend
    (linguistics), crl (some developmental psychology people).

    Many, many other machines house course, faculty, staff, and research
    accounts.  Your best bet is to look the name up at ucsd.edu.

Univ. of Central Florida (Orlando)
    CS dept: only grad students are given accounts. finger
      [e-mail]
    Engineering: finger [e-mail]
    General: ucf1vm.cc.ucf.edu.  (A bitnet node, so you cannot finger)

Univ. of Chicago:
    Undergraduates: midway.uchicago.edu (formerly tank.uchicago.edu)
      (midway.uchicago.edu serves as a mail server for machines
      named quads.uchicago.edu and ellis.uchicago.edu. When midway
      refuses connections, finger at quad or ellis.)
    Grads and faculty may also be on quads and ellis.
    CS Grads: gargoyle.uchicago.edu
    Math: zaphod.uchicago.edu
    Education: paideia.uchicago.edu
    Chemistry: pico.uchicago.edu
    Astronomy: oddjob.uchicago.edu (finger lastname)
    Social sciences (Economics, History, Sociology, Political Science):
      cicero.spc.uchicago.edu [also accepts 'finger']
    Also Try: uchep.uchicago.edu

    Many researchers have accounts on rainbow.uchicago.edu, in
      addition to having accounts on their own workstations.
    The University of Chicago now (fall91) runs the ph mail
      system, so sending mail to [e-mail] will
      work if they've entered a real mailbox into their ph entry.
      In case of name conflict, add additional initials beyond the
      first. Questions should be directed to [e-mail].
      Unfortunately few people bother to input their e-mail addresses.

Univ. of Chile (Universidad de Chile) (in Santiago, Chile, South America):
    Mathematics and Physical Sciences Campus (includes engineering)
       All students that ask for an account can get one on araucaria:
         araucaria.cec.uchile.cl (Sun 690MP), uchcecvm.bitnet (IBM 390)
       All
 that have a class involving computers get an account on:
         cipres.cec.uchile.cl    (Sun 690MP)
      Professors, researchers, and research assistents:
        tamarugo.cec.uchile.cl  (Sun 690MP)
    Computer Science (Departamento Ciencia de la Computacion)
      All Computer Science students and professors have an account on:
        dcc.uchile.cl           (Sun 4/470)
      Professors, researchers, and grad students of Computer Science
        tortel.dcc.uchile.cl    (Sun SS II)
      For more information access the gopher server (using normal gopher
      access or telnet/rlogin with login name "gopher") on tortel.

Univ. of Colorado/Boulder:            Changed: Tue Feb 23 1993
    Finger [e-mail], where name is lastname, firstname, or
      firstname-lastname.  At the upper right of the directory information
      is a username and machine; their address is then
      [e-mail]
    Telnet to directory.colorado.edu, using username "directory".
    This lets you access the online phonebook/email address book.

Univ. of Connecticut:
    uconn.edu
    [e-mail]
    CS
Undergrads: ug1.eng1.uconn.edu
    CS Grads and Faculty: cse1.cse.uconn.edu
    CS Research and Grads: sparc0.brc.uconn.edu

Univ. of Copenhagen (Dennmark):                Created: Wed Mar 24 1993

This is the last third of the summary of how to find email addresses
for undergraduate and graduate students, faculty and staff at various
colleges and universities.

Univ. of Dayton (Ohio):
    School of Engineering: udecc.engr.udayton.edu
    CPS: udcps3.cps.udayton.edu
    General: udavxb.oca.udayton.edu

Univ. of Delaware:
    All undergraduate
, graduate students and faculty have
    accounts on the university system. ine iStatll ne wou  FFSU'afterost anct ct cnitialomaits E (ETn mare:l.edu and ravel.udel.edu, but
    these are redundant because they share accounts and files with   FFSms.
    The login name is a random 5-digit number until the user changes it,
    then it is whatever the user picks. Fingering last names will work to
    find the login name, but since there are thousands of accounts, it may
    produce an overload of information.

    The College of Marine Studies maintains a computer system. Students
    and faculty have accounts with login names of their choosing on
    several computers, such as
       earthview.cms.udel.edu
       mingming.cmafteroETndu
       chester.cms.uost ancedu
    There are several other sparcstations around but they share accounts
    with the ones named above.

Univ. of Florida (Gainesville, FL):
    Finger [e-mail]. Contains complete listings
    for people in the College of Engineering, and some listings
    for people in other departments.

Univ. of Houston (Houston, Texas)            Changed: Mon Feb 15 1993
    Host: cs.uh.edu.: All graduate students, staff, and faculty in the CS
      dept.  have accounts on cs.uh.edu. Undergrads have accounts on
      either menudo.uh.edu (Unix) or jetson.uh.edu (VAX).
    Try "finger [e-mail]" for information on graduate students,
      staff, or faculty. Use "finger [e-mail]" or "finger
      [e-mail]" for undergrads.
    Anonymous ftp host: beethoven.cs.uh.edu (129.7.5.180)
    Undergraduate
and graduate information can be found under pub/gradinfo.
    To request for information and/or application forms, send name and
      address to [e-mail]

Univ. of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign:            Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
    In general, finger [e-mail], where name can be firstname,
      lastname, or firstname-lastname.  Also try

    CS: try mail to [e-mail] or [e-mail]
    Campus: try [e-mail] and [e-mail].  It
      is usually possible to send mail to [e-mail] or
      [e-mail]. If that fails, you will get a message
      which tells you why the email could not be sent.
    Student Accounts: As of Fall 1992: ux4.cso.uicc.edu (those entering
      before then have accounts on uxa.cso.uiuc.edu)  Every freshman gets
      an account on this machine. Usernames are usually flastname (old
      accounts were the user's three initials, followed by five random
      characters.)
    Math (Grads, Faculty, Staff): [e-mail]
    Classes: ux1.cso.uiuc.edu, hendrix.ece.uiuc.edu

       If you have BITNET access, you can query the WHOIS server interactively,
       using the TELL command.  For instance:
           TELL WHOIS AT UKCC WHOIS FOOBLE
            or
           TELL WHOIS AT UKCC GUESS AT NKU BOOGLE

       If you don't have access to BITNET, you can query the WHOIS server via
       electronic mail.  Send your email to [e-mail], and place your
       commands in the body (NOT the Subject line) of the message. The HELP
       command will send you back a full list of commands.

Univ. of Maryland:                    Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
    Employees (faculty and staff): Finger [e-mail].  Names are
      usually flnumber or firstname_LASTNAME (e.g. sh127 or Simon_HAWKIN)
    All students (grad and undergrad) may request an account on
      wam.umd.edu (Workstations At Maryland).  All undergrads (and
      probably graduate students too) may request accounts on eng.umd.edu;
      most engineering graduate students have accounts there, but so do
      non-engineering
s. Finger using the lastname at these hosts.
    CS Faculty/Staff/Graduate Students: cs.umd.edu; sometimes
      umiacs.umd.edu or cfar.umd.edu
    telnet info.umd.edu and login as lookup for faculty/staff E-mail
      directory.  Campus has universal faculty/staff E-mail on
      info.umd.edu (aka umail.umd.edu).  Whois and finger do not work off
      campus for this computer, though.  If you know the name, try
      [e-mail].

Univ. of Massachusetts/Amherst:
    Students/Faculty: first.{mi.}[e-mail] (This is
    on the CDC Cyber NOS/VE system.) Another common format is
    first.{mi.}[e-mail]. Saturn is the name
    of the computer. Many people, especially faculty, have a
    departmental abbreviation in place of "student" or
    "saturn.ucc".
    Graduate CS students: cs.umass.edu Username is person's lastname.
    Intro CS courses: S#######@tethys.ucc.umass.edu, where #######
    is a 7-digit student number.
    Engineering: {fi}[e-mail]. Names defaults to
    last name, but may include the first initial if the last name
    is not unique.
    Student directory service: (413)-545-1515 for finding a phone number.

Univ. of Massachusetts/Lowell:
    All CS students and University UNIX users are generally
    addressable as [e-mail]. Adjustments are made
    for conflicts such as adding the middle initial after the
    first, or adding additional letters from the first name.

    Not all
 automatically get accounts on the VMS system,
    but if they do they can be addressed as [e-mail].
    Finger works on this machine, but isn't very informative. If there is
    a name conflict, they will add letters from the first name or numeric
    digits (1, 2, etc.) until it is unique.


Univ. of Michigan:
    The best place to try to find an e-mail address for a faculty,
    students, and staff at U-M is via the X.500 White Pages service.
    There are many ways in which this can be accessed, but one easy
    way is through finger (finger [e-mail]).
    (The X.500 Directory also contains business addresses, business
    phone numbers, titles, and home addresses and phone numbers in
    the case where the person has granted such permission.)
    If the person has registered an e-mail address, it will appear;
    if the person has not, follow the advice of the X.500 server and
    try fingering the person at um.cc.umich.edu (the mainframe),
    caen.engin.umich.edu (the College of Engineering mail hub), or
    med.umich.edu (the Medical Campus mail hub).

    People with accounts on um.cc.umich.edu also have a Bitnet
    address:  [e-mail] where 'xxxx' is the person's
    account on the mainframe.

    A database of U of Michigan student and faculty phone numbers
    and addresses (not email addresses, just phones) is available through
    the "gopher" server running at gopher.uis.itd.umich.edu port 70, also
    available via telnet to gopher.micro.umn.edu (login: gopher) in the
    "Other gophers" menu or the "phone books" menu. This gopher
    phone number database has been changed to access X.500.

    Grad students in EECS get accounts on eecs.umich.edu. (The
    specific machine names are dip and zip, but eecs forwards
    appropriately.)

    Usernames are either lastname, or of the form Fname_Lname.
    313- ann arbor info 764-1817 998-7999

    If all else fails, you can always mail the request to the U-M
    postmaster at [e-mail].

    Alternately:
        telnet to 35.1.48.149 35.1.48.150 or hermes.merit.edu
        press return until you get a "Which Host?" prompt
        type FINGER UM <return> NAME <return>

    CS Grad
students: @cs.umn.edu.  General policy is "last name as
    account name, plus first and middle initials if that's not unique",
    but there *are* exceptions.

    Undergrads in technical majors will have temporary accounts on
    staff.tc.umn.edu or vx.cis.umn.edu.  The account names are serialized
    so aren't useful in finding out names.  Recently (as of late 1992)
    most class accounts are on mermaid.micro.umn.edu, and are named.  All
    Twin Cities campus students have e-mail on student.tc.umn.edu, whether
    they know it or not.

    Chemistry (faculty, staff, grads): [e-mail]
    The login is usually the person's last name, although there
    are some exceptions.

Univ. of Nebraska at Omaha:
       Undergraduate Students and Faculty: zeus.unomaha.edu (unoma1.bitnet)
     Main academic VAX running VMS.
     All computer science students receive academic accounts of the
     form CCXXX where CC is a 2-character class
code and XXX is a number
     from 000 (usually the instructor) up to 999 (usually smaller than
     050 in practice).  These accounts are reset each semester

     Permanent accounts are also on Zeus, usually a last name or
     nickname.  Permanent student accounts are of the form ZAXXX
     for unaffiliated students, or organizational forms like ACMXXX
     and IEEEXXX for members of their respective student organizations.

     Any undergraduate student who asks nicely can get a ZA account,
     or an organizational account if they are a member.

      Graduate Students and Faculty: odin.unomaha.edu

    also finger the machine.

Univ. of New Brunswick: (Fredericton, NB, Canada)

    Computing Services: csd.unb.ca

    All students are automatically given MUSIC accounts on the VM
    service and can send and receive mail, however, there is at
    present no easy way to determine the MUSIC id knowing the name
    of the student.  Depending on course requirements, students may
    also have accounts on the MVS or UNIX systems.

    Requests for non-student userids can be sent to our on-line
    directory server.  Send mail to [e-mail], If the 1st
    non-blank line of the mail is Help or Find name, the name will be
    searched and the results mailed back to the address in the From:

Univ. of Notre Dame:

    The University of Notre Dame now supports full name human readable
    e-mail addresses, such as [e-mail].  All members
    of the Notre Dame community have e-mail addresses on nd.edu; however,
    at this time (June, 1992) the vast majority of them are
    "uninitialized".  This means the user has not specifically told the
    server how to deliver e-mail to this user, so e-mail to this user will
    fail.

    All members of the Notre Dame community also have userids in our AFS
    file space.  Userids in this file space tend to be of the form
    flllllll or flllllln.  Some users who use the AFS file system might
    not have initialized their entries on the nd.edu name server;
    conversely,
many community members who can receive mail via nd.edu
    ignore their AFS userids.

    Notre Dame also has many other central and departmental computer
    systems which can send and receive e-mail.  As more and more users
    initialize their nameserver accounts there will be less need to
    remember these specific local systems and userids.  However, for the
    time being, they are often the best addresses for some members
    of the Notre Dame community.

    All students are given accounts on darwin.cc.nd.edu, but not
    all students use them. Usernames are of the form flllllll. In
    case of name conflicts, numbers are added to the end to disambiguate.

    Questions can be sent to [e-mail].

Univ. of Trondheim (Norway):                Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
    Students at the University of Trondheim can be reached at the
    following mail adresses:
      NTH (Norw. Inst of Techn.) : [e-mail]
      AVH (Coll. of Arts and Science) [e-mail]
    A postmaster service exists at both sites.  Employees and
      students at AVH can also be found in the EAN Directory Service.
    The Norwegian Institute of Technology, aka NTH (Norges Tekniske
      Hoegskole).  All students at NTH have the right to open an account
      on the the email machines, but this right is not very heavily
      advertized, so most people don't use the machines.  Login names may
      be FLLLLLLL, LLLLLLLL, FFFFFFFF, FMLLLLLL, or (for people with very
      common first and last names) MMMMMMMM (8 characters maximum).
      FLLLLLLL is probably the most common; MMMMMMMM and especially
      FMLLLLLL is probably quite rare.  LLLLLLLL and FFFFFFFFF may be used
      if the user's last or first names are not not very common,
      especially if they are foreign.

    they often appear in the online directory at ph.cc.utah.edu

Univ. of Vermont:
    There are two main computing organizations on campus:
    UCS (University Computing Services) and
    EMBA-CF (Division of Engineering, Mathematics, and Business
    Administration, Computer Facility).  As a general rule,
    people with accounts at EMBA-CF do not bother to obtain accounts at
    UCS.  UVM's domain name is `uvm.edu', and sub-domains are not
    generally used.  Most of the UVM network has most
TCP ports blocked
    off, but one machine, emily.uvm.edu, can serve as a gateway for, for
    example, the finger program,  (i.e., finger
    someone@[e-mail].)

    UCS has three main machines: uvmvax.uvm.edu (UVMVAX.BITNET),
    uvmvm.uvm.edu (UVMVM.BITNET), and UVMADMIN.BITNET.  Accounts on UVMVAX
    (a VMS system) are generally of the form Lastname_F; accounts on
    UVMVM and UVMADMIN don't seem to follow any particular scheme, but
    Lastname and LastnameF seem to be popular.  Many UCS staff people use
    their initials.  UVMVAX supports unspecified finger only; UVMVM
    doesn't support finger at all.

    EMBA-CF supports computing for the departments of Math/Stat, Business
    Administration, CS/EE, and Civil/Mechanical Engineering, as well as
    the administration of the College of Engineering and Mathematics; all
    students, faculty, and staff in the Division are entitled to an
    account, although many students do not bother to get a
    non-class
account. Sometimes, other people may be given
    accounts on EMBA-CF machines.

    EMBA-CF has three separate mail-spool servers, and users are free
    to forward their mail to whichever one they happen to prefer; these
    machines are uvm-gen.uvm.edu, hal.uvm.edu, and trantor.uvm.edu.
    uvm-gen is also known as just plain UVM.EDU, and most faculty and
    staff with accounts at EMBA-CF have a alias of the form
    Firstname{.M}.Lastname installed at uvm-gen.  All
other users, except
    for class and staff accounts, are assigned by last name, with a
    numeric suffix in case of collision.  Staff accounts for work-study
    employees are usually of the form operfml.  Class accounts are of the
    form ddNNNfml, where dd is the department
    (cs,ce,me,ee,ma,st,ba) and NNN is the class number; in case of
    collision, the class number or middle initial may be changed.

    There are two sub-domains: msg.uvm.edu belongs to Mach Systems Group,
    a group of graduate students involved porting operating systems (most
    notably, Mach 2.5 and 3.0) to local hardware; and med.uvm.edu belongs
    to the UVM School of Medicine, which is not very well networked as
    yet.

Univ. of Virginia:
    More or less all students, faculty, and staff can have
    accounts that at least receive mail, but most people don't
    ever bother to get or use an account.  People in the School of
    Engineering are most likely to be accessible via e-mail.  The
    school's primary connections are Internet links to SURAnet
    (local NSF Regional network), but there is also a single
    BITNET link.  Almost
any user can be located using the
    Internet standard whois program and the whois database that
    is kept on the system named: whois.virginia.edu
    You can also try fingering [e-mail].

Univ. of Washington, Seattle:                Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
    CS Grads and Faculty: [e-mail]
    Most folks are on carson.u.washington.edu or stein.u.washington.edu.
      Usernames can be anything. Mail sent via u.washington.edu should
      forward to the appropriate account.
    CS students, grads, and faculty can generally be looked up by last
      name at cs.washington.edu; if not, try june.cs.washington.edu for
      grads and faculty, and wolf.cs.washington.edu for undergrads.

Univ. of Waterloo, Ontario:
    Userids are of of the form <initials>+<surname> (e.g. mbmulroney, ghwbush),
    and may be any length (for most machines; some still restrict them to
    8 characters.  Mail servers send you back a list of possible userids
    if the one you tried doesn't match any known user.
    Math/CS undergraduates: undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca
    CS graduate students: neumann.uwaterloo.ca
    CS and Math Graduate Students: violet.uwaterloo.ca and jeeves.uwaterloo.ca
    CS faculty may be found on one or more of the primary machines
    {watdragon, maytag, watcgl, daisy, jeeves, grand, poppy, vlsi, watmsg,
      math, watserv1}.uwaterloo.ca (tnitialolots more)
    Engineering undergraduate
students: userid usually of form
    <surname>+<initials> or <initials>+<surname>, at one of
    {chemical, civil, electrical, mechanical}.watstar.uwaterloo.ca
      Also try @1302 and @108 for chemical, civil, electrical and mechanical
    engineering
-- these are used mainly for lower-year students
    from all engineering departments.
    Systems Design Engineering: watnow.uwaterloo.ca

    Art Students:  artspas.watstar.uwaterloo.ca.

Univ. of Western Ontario, London, Ontario:        Changed: Tue Mar 30 1993
    Computing and Communications Services operates a campus directory
    service as well as a campus E-mail forwarding service. This covers
    all of the faculty and staff listed in the campus telephone directory
    as well as many students. Registration is voluntary but for faculty
    and staff is reasonably complete and accurate.
      % whois -h whois.uwo.ca name
      eg. whois -h whois.uwo.ca smith
      eg. whois -h whois.uwo.ca j.smith
      eg. whois -h whois.uwo.ca john.smith
    The mail forwarding service works for common names as well:
      % mail [e-mail]
      eg. mail [e-mail]
      eg. mail [e-mail]
      eg. mail [e-mail]
    Mail will either be forwarded to the user with that common name, or
    if the name is not unique, you will receive a returned message listing
    all users with that common name.

Univ. of Wisconsin/La Crosse:
    [e-mail]
    Usernames are arbitrary. Try fingering by the lastname.

Univ. of Wisconsin/Madison:
    Phone book server (staff only): finger [e-mail]
    CS: cs.wisc.edu
    Engineering: cae.wisc.edu
    Undergrads: Class accounts based on first and last name,
      @garfield.cs.wisc.edu.
    For other departments, you can sometimes guess the hostname
      from the department name.  Thus: meteor.wisc.edu for
      Meteorology, math.wisc.edu for Mathematics.

Univ. of Wisconsin - Milwaukee:
   Many students - csd4.csd.uwm.edu, convex.csd.uwm.edu
   EE ugrad and grad - ee.uwm.edu
   CS grad
- point.cs.uwm.edu
   CS fac - blatz.cs.uwm.edu
   Students taking Comp Sci Classes: miller.cs.uwm.edu

   In fact if you finger cs.uwm.edu you get:

   Computer Science users at UWM are normally on workstations or
   other backbone computing machines. To locate a faculty member,
   graduate student or undergraduate student, you can use the
   finger program.

   The finger program can help you locate a user who is known to the CS
   machines at UWM. To locate a user do

       finger [e-mail]

       Where   X=F|f   if the person is a CS faculty member
           X=G|g   if the person is a CS grad
student
           X=U|u   if the person is a CS undergraduate student
           X=E|e   if the person is an Engineering student
           X=O|o   Other University machines(Just some of them!)

   Undergraduates are for the most part on miller.cs.uwm.edu. Graduate
   students are usually on cvax.cs.uwm.edu. To get a complete list of
   cs-faculty, finger [e-mail].


Univ. of Wisconsin - River Falls:
    uwrf.bitnet

University of Wyoming
(Laramie, WY)            Created: Mon Mar 22 1993
    The main computer on which every student/faculty/ employee can have an
      account on (if they wish) is CORRAL.UWYO.EDU (a vaxcluster made up
      of OUTLAW.UWYO.EDU or POSSE.UWYO.EDU) The username is completely
      unpredictable (totally at the choice of the user).  Finger at
      corral or posse.
    The graduate Cosci students often have an account on RODEO.UWYO.EDU
      with the same username as on CORRAL.
    The engineering students all have accounts on DS1.UWYO.EDU.
    Most incoming freshman these days will get an account on our Vax
      (Corral) because it looks like the freshman orientation class
      requires it.

Utah State University:
    cc.usu.edu - This is the MAIN VAX. A Vax 6510 that is usually the
             system that everyone uses for most
purposes. Our
             usenet news is on this computer as well as other
             utilities. This is also the system that is a bitnet
             node (USU). So mail can be sent to usu.bitnet as well.
       mua.usu.edu - This is our Micro-VAX that is running ultrix. Because
             this is the popular domain for TinyTALK and TinyFUGUE
             programs, the active Gamers use this system.

    You can finger both systems, the account names are given in a random
    fashion that consists of a five letter code. The first two
    letters usually denoting whether the user is a student or a
    faculty member. SL__ lists
account belong to students and FA__
    accounts belong to faculty members.  The easiest way to locate
    a user is to send mail to [e-mail] or, if your
    system supports the bitnet SEND command, use SEND OPERATOR@USU
    and ask them to look up the name for you.

Vanderbilt University:
    Engineering faculty and grad students: @vuse.vanderbilt.edu
      (most
user IDs are the three initials)

    Undergrads and other grad
students: @ctrvax.vanderbilt.edu
      Most user IDs are llllllfm (8 chars max).  You can't finger
      on this VAX cluster; try sending mail to
      [e-mail]; you should get a response
      within a business day or so.

Vassar:                            Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
     Students: [e-mail]. (Formerly FMLLLLLLLLLL).
      Every student is given a VAX account, but few actually activate them
      (by asking for a password).
    Faculty: Faculty must request an account in order to get it, but most
      of those who have accounts use them. Recent faculty usernames are of
      the same form as students; previously they were lastnames followed
      by enough letters of the first name to ensure uniqueness. Their
      accounts are also on vaxsar.vassar.edu.
    Fingering with the username or the lastname will usually work.

Virginia Tech:

    Computer Science students at Virginia Tech (aka VPI or VPI&SU for
    Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, normally just
    Virginia Tech, though) can be found at:

    EE: vtccts1.cc.vt.edu, eddie.ee.vt.edu
    CS: csugrad.cs.vt.edu

    Undergraduates: [e-mail]
    Graduate Students: [e-mail] [e-mail]
    There is account on ne SSI Mail account. If a person has an SSI Mail
    account it will be: [e-mail]. It is common
    for undergrad
 (especially non-CS) to get an SSI Mail account
    rather than a CSU account because it doesn't cost any money.

Wake Forest University:
    [e-mail]

Washington University, St. Louis MO:            Changed: Sat Mar 27 1993
    Arts&Sciences undergrads: [e-mail] or @artsci.wustl.edu
    Undergrad Engineers: All have accounts on cec1.wustl.edu and
      cec2.wustl.edu (cec2.uucp).  Userids are the user's three initials
      followed by a single digit for disambiguating name conflicts. If
      there is no name conflict, the extra digit is a 1. Fingering from
      outside the university sometimes works. Also, some computer science
      students have accounts on wucs1, and anyone can have an account on
      maria. On these machines, the user chooses his/her own login name to
      be enabled. Usernames for engineering faculty are just their three
      initials.
    Other Undergrads: Try wugold.bitnet

Wayne State University, Detroit MI
    All students in the University, regardless of their major or college
      can have access to an account.
    Engineering: ss0.eng.wayne.edu (or nova, or ece, or any solar planet,
      e.g. sun, venus, ...)
    CS: jupiter.cs.wayne.edu, zeus.cs.wayne.edu
    These machines support finger.  Most other students' accounts
      are on wu.cc.wayne.edu; try 'finger [e-mail]'
      to find information about anyone with "partial-name" in their name.

Wellesley College (Wellesley, Massachusetts)
    FLastname#@lucy.wellesley.edu, where F is first initial, and digit #
    is used only to disambiguate (e.g. JSMITH1).  Finger not accepted from
    remote sites.  Faculty names never get the #.

Wesleyan:
    Accounts are on eagle.wesleyan.edu. The username is of the
    form FLname, where F is the first initial and Lname is the
    lastname of the individual.

West Chester University:
    Users (at least undergraduates, if not others) are given
    accounts on a machine whose name is the same as the first
    letter of their last name. Usernames are of the form fllllll.
    So John Doe would be [e-mail]. Send mail
    to [e-mail] if you have questions.

West Point, the United States Military Academy
    Host names are of the form usmaX.usma.edu, for X from 1 to 18.
    Try 'finger lastname@host', starting with usma18 (since lower-numbered
    machines tend to refuse a finger connection).  Actual mailboxes for
    cadets are of the form xYNNNNCC where x is the letter x, Y is last
    digit of graduating year (e.g. 6 for 1996), NNNN is a student ID
code,
    and CC is company (letter-digit, e.g. D4).

Western Montana College
    Try [e-mail].  This site has no finger server.

Whitman College (Walla Walla, WA):            Created: Wed Mar 24 1993
    [e-mail] works for faculty and students.  The node
      does support finger.


Widener University:
    General: [e-mail] (it may also need a
    middle initial)
    CS: [e-mail]

Willamette University, Salem OR:
    userid is <first initial><lastname> (e.g. ksmith)
    up to 8 characters

    all students, faculty and staff

Williams College:                    Changed: Tue Apr  6 1993
    Students: [e-mail], possibly with _N (N a
      number) to disambiguate.
    Usernames *used to be* YYFML (YY = year, F = first initial, M = middle
      initial, L = last initial); these can still be found by fingering
      @bigbird.cc.williams.edu
    Williams' postmaster will not give out user ids to outside requests.

Worcester Polytechnic Institute:
    @wpi.wpi.edu

Yale:                            Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
    Fingering [e-mail] will give you all Unix people's
      email addresses, as well as their phone numbers.  Finger
      [e-mail] for further directions.
    Grad CS, Undergrad CS: [e-mail] (yalecs.bitnet)
    Undergrad Accounts (plus faculty & grad students in many non-CS
      Graduate School depts.):
      YALEVM: (about 10% of students): finger [e-mail]
        (or [e-mail]). Users can also request custom names.
        Mail queries can go to [e-mail] or
        [e-mail], as appropriate.
      MINERVA: (about 85% of
): host minverva.cis.yale.edu.
        Students choose login names, so there is no rule.  Many use
        <FFFFFFFL> or <FLLLLLLL> or <FFFFFFFF> or <LLLLLLLL>... try every
        combination you can think of.  If this doesn't work, the following
        way to find the MINERVA login name, and then to use it when
        fingering <@minerva.cis.yale.edu> should do: finger
        <[e-mail]> will give you (after one or two
        trials) the MINERVA login name.
    QUICKMAIL: <[e-mail]>.
    Medical
School: yalemed.bitnet

York University (Toronto, Ontario)            Changed: Mon Feb 15 1993
    Try ``finger [e-mail]''  using first name, last name and probable
      userid.  Also try ``whois -h horton.yorku.ca name'', also with first
      and last names. The faculty and staff phone book is available on
      gopher from gopher.yorku.ca and experimentally by ph from the same
      machine.
    About 1/3 of the faculty and staff have email, and perhaps 1/8 of the
      students.
    Faculty, Staff: [e-mail] or [e-mail]
      Userids are often first-initial last-name, but do vary.
    Student userids do not follow a simple pattern. Students with email
      are on ariel,yorku.ca (computer science), glade.yorku.ca (cs and
      part-time students), writer.yorku.ca (computer aided writing centre)
      and calumet.yorku.ca. Most of these clusters are fingerable.
    Questions can be sent to [e-mail];  they're not too useful
      when searching for students, as there is no student phonebook.
      However ``whois -h horton.yorku.ca name''  discovers many student
      adresses.
