The Nevis mail domain is nevis.columbia.edu. When you are given an account on the Linux cluster, a mail account is established for you with the same name as your user ID. For example, if your Linux user account is jsmith, your e-mail address is jsmith@nevis.columbia.edu. |

- "But I can't send a message to that Gmail address because the Nevis server is down!" If you're saying that, then you don't think you have an alternative e-mail account. Remember that you also have an e-mail account on the Columbia University systems, via your UNI. Your account name is
<UNI@columbia.edu>, and the SMTP server is send.cc.columbia.edu.
