Beep! Beep!

Dear user@research.rutgers.edu,

to be invalid email address:

  user@research.rutgers.edu

longer be delivered.  Before that happens (as soon as possible), you
should notify your correspondent of your new email address.


Thank you.

Some users have expressed concerns about this warning message (aka the "Beep! Beep! message) and would like to have an option to disable this warning.

To opt-out, go to Opt-Out site. Enter your dragon username and password to opt-out. This opt-out will take effect immediately. Note: You must have an account on dragon to do this.

                      X-Real-To: *username@paul*
