Welcome Trusted Servants!

If you are visiting this page, it is probably because you have recently been assigned a new District 61 Email address.

First, here are a few general comments on your new address. Following that, you will find a few links to information regarding the set up of your email and mailbax.

• The address assigned to you is for District 61 correspondance only. Using this address for personal reasons may set a chain of problems for future trusted servants. For example, if GSR were to use their address, i.e. 161010@aadistrict61.com to sign up for an adult site, the address would end up on more spam lists than we can count. But once the GSR steps down, the email address passes to the next GSR for the group, and they are faced with the spam. So help us keep our addresses clean, and not use them for anything other than district business or communicating among ourselves. We would really like to avoid the expense and hassles

• Please know that your access to your assigned address is cancelled when you leave active service. The address is then passed to the next person taking the position, and they are assigned a new password. Emails for a previous trusted servant cannot and will not be forwarded.

• We ask your patience as we work out the kinks in the new system and pages. Although there are many software options out there for generating and maintaining colorful and fancy sites, we are intentionally avoiding those. We hope by keeping it simple, it can easily be passed from one site administrator to the next when the Dist 61 service positions rotate.

Steps for activating your new mailbox:
• Either click on the link provided in the email sent to you advising you of your new email address, or

• If you selected to have a hard copy printed and mailed you will need to type in the Account Setup Page's web address.
• Once you have the activation page on your screen, you will be presented with three choices.
  

  • The first choice is if you already have an existing Yahoo/SBC ID, you can use it to activate.
    Follow the directions on the screen and you should be set up quickly.

  • Your second choice is to set up a new account:
    Option Two: Setup Yahoo Account
    This link will direct you to a page that will give more information on how to sign up on Yahoo for a user-friendly mailbox to use for accessing emails from Dist 61.

  • The third option is to use another mail program, such as Outlook, Eudora, etc.:
    Option Three: Set Up Mailbox With Another Mail Program
    This link will direct you to a page that will give more information on how to set up a non-Yahoo mailbox with Outlook, Eudora, Netscape, etc. to use for accessing your Dist 61 email.
