All DCC information and notifications will come through this email account.
This is to be certain that everyone gets these notifications. If you have
multiple emails accounts and prefer not to check another account, you
have choices:
- Your Crusader Mail has an auto forward feature that will allow you
to forward that email to your regular account. If you do this, be certain
it is working before Oct. 11. It also means that if you change email
addresses, you need to change the auto forward on your DCC mail.
- You can use Outlook or Outlook Express to pick up Crusader Mail. Here
are the three settings you need to know.
