Facebook users registered with their University e-mail address don’t have to worry about changing the registered e-mail account after the Tigermail transition.Sheri Thompson, IT communications and planning officer, said any messages or ties to the old account, lsu.edu, will forward to the new account, tigers.lsu.edu.”When you log into Facebook, it registers you as ‘name.lsu.edu,'” she said. “This is still tied to your LSU e-mail and will forward to tigers.lsu.edu.”Thompson said students have the option of using lsu.edu or tigers.lsu.edu, but tigers.lsu.edu is faster, bypassing the LSU system and sending straight to a student’s inbox.”You don’t need to re-distribute your e-mail to people who already have the old one,” she said. “But when you reply, it will specify in the details that it was sent from your tigers.lsu.edu address, giving them your new e-mail.”Molly Briggs, mass communication sophomore, said her Facebook account is registered under her University e-mail address.”I just recently changed to Tigermail, but I haven’t had any problems with my Facebook since the transition,” she said.Laura Davis, nursing sophomore, said she uses a private e-mail address for Facebook, which avoids Facebook notifications clogging her inbox. In addition, she said she hasn’t had problems with e-mails forwarding from her old account to her new one.”I have this e-mail address just for my Facebook,” she said. “I use my LSU e-mail for everything else though. It’s more professional.”Thompson said when a student graduates, his or her e-mail account is deleted after a year. If the deleted e-mail address is tied to a social networking system, the network account will still function but without sending e-mail notifications.Facebook officials could not be reached for comment by press time.—-Contact Steven Powell at [email protected]
