For all the units after the Introduction to Windows 98, you will be emailing the file that you have completed at the end of the unit. For all subsequent units, you will be emailing the files as indicated below. You may use any method to email your work, however, we will expect all students to know how to ftp and email files using pine during lab exams, so be sure to practice this if you normally email your work another way. Also, if there are any question on verifying that you sent the assignment in for grading at the appriopriate time, you will need to have the file in your mason account and you will need to use the pine system. Reminder: each student must do his or her own work. If our system detects that you have copied a file from another student, the matter will be referred to the Honor Committee.

Important: Some mail systems will not process the mail properly if the filename has a space in it. For this reason all students must use the following filenames for their assignments before emailing the file to lab section account.

To use pine to email your assignment, you will first need to upload the file to your mason account using an ftp program. The instructions below assume that WS_FTP95 is installed on the computer you are using.

In one of the campus PC labs, launch FTP. Choose Programs from the Start
menu, then Internet Applications, then WS_FTP95. Put your disk in drive A:
(or select the file from the C: drive if it is on drive C:). Type in
information into the dialog box as indicated below: 

First, be sure anonymous login is de-selected.
Delete any number that is in the Host name field.
Host name: mason.gmu.edu
User ID: yourloginname
Password: yourpassword

Then click OK 

Click "chdir" (change directory) from the next dialog box, and type or
choose A: (left side). Your mason directory will appear
on the right. Important: be sure the binary radio button is
selected.

Then choose the file you wish to upload. 
Then click the arrow that points right to send it to your mason account.
You can then choose close and exit the program. 

Then go to the Start menu and choose Internet Applications and then
Telnet.  From the dialog box choose either mason or osf1 and click OK.
At the login prompt, type your login and password.  

At the Unix prompt, type pine and then press enter.  Then choose C to

Attchmnt: <enter the name of the file here. Note that you must add
         the appropriate extension: .doc for Word files,
        .xls for Excel files, .ppt for Power Point files, and 
        .mdb for Access. Example: shareholder.doc>
Subject: <enter your name, lab section, and assignment. Example:

Then press ^x (hold down the control key and press x) to send the
mail. Then type Q to quit and then enter logout at the Unix prompt.
Keep the backup copy you mailed yourself until you have confirmed

These instructions will not work in the campus labs. Unfortunately, due to security problems, we can not use Netscape to send mail from the labs. You must use the instructions above to send your lab work from the campus labs.

Note: In if you can't find the Netscape program, try looking under the Start menu, then the Programs menu, then Internet Applications. Open Netscape Messenger or Netscape Communicator. In Communicator, choose the mailbox icon in the lower right hand side of the window. It is usually the third one from the right.

1) Choose the New Msg button near the top of the window.
2) Type the address for your lab section in the To: field.  
3) Press enter.  In the next To: field that appears, enter your
email address to email yourself a backup copy.  This is your proof
you sent the assignment on time.  Don't delete this until you
have verified with your TA that you have received credit for
this assignment.
4) Then click the paperclip (attach button) in the field below. Click in
the space that opens and choose the file you wish to mail.  
5) In the subject field, type your name and the assignment.  Example:
Joanna Lee A01 Word Assignment 1.
