Login Deactivation: Tips for Students

Once you have been notified that your account is being deactivated, make sure to take your stuff with you! After account deactivation you will no longer have access to the resources below. Here are some tips on how to make sure you don't lose anything in your transition from Evergreen to the big wide world out there.

Email

If you use your Evergreen email, notify those you correspond with about the change to your email address. If you have email messages in your Evergreen mailbox that you want to save, there are a couple of options:

Set up an IMAP email client on your computer. See the IMAP Instructions for details.
Forward your emails individually from Evergreen's Webmail to an outside address.

Stop getting messages from Evergreen, All Student DL, etc..

If you don't want to get messages from Evergreen between when you leave and when the account is disabled, the best way to do this is to uncheck forwarding (if you forward your Evergreen email to another provider) through my.evergreen.edu under Account Settings, email.

Evaluations

Evaluations that you created inside the MyEvergreen application may be saved as PDFs to your own computer. You may of course print these evals, as well. The Registration Office will always be available to produce official and unofficial transcripts for you.

Evergreen Blogs

All blogs will be deleted 60 days from the date that the logins have been disabled. You can backup your blog posts and pages to a text file and import them later into another off-site blogging service. Please note: any media uploaded to Evergreen's blog server will have to be saved manually. For instructions see: Exporting Blog Entries

Network File Space

All network resources (including network file space) will be deleted 60 days from the date that the logins have been disabled. It is important that students wishing to preserve materials in these folders make their own copies before this date.

Web Space

All network resources (including web space) will be deleted 60 days from the date that the logins have been disabled. It is important that students wishing to preserve materials in these folders make their own copies before this date.
