Security in OITE-mail

  • Members of the University community are encouraged to use e-mail for University-related activities and to facilitate the efficient exchange of useful information.  Access to e-mail is a privilege and certain responsibilities accompany that privilege. Users of e-mail are expected to be ethical and responsible in their actions.
  • Sensitive information, including but not limited to Social Security Numbers (SSNs), health information and credit card numbers may not be sent via e-mail.
  • Members of the UTSA community may engage in political lobbying, campaigning and other activities, but not during work hours (for employees) or with the use of State resources, including e-mail, except as permitted by the Regents' Rules and Regulations.
  • Users may not pose as anyone else or read another’s e-mail, except when properly authorized to do so.
  • E-mail users are expected to make efficient use of technology resources, especially avoiding wasteful and disruptive activities such as sending chain letters, very large files or by sending broadcast messages or other unwanted material(s).
  • UTSA computer and technology resources must be protected from viruses, worms and other infections transmitted via e-mail. E-mail users may not send messages or use e-mail software that poses high security risks, including sending or forwarding e-mail that is likely to contain computer viruses or downloading Web-based e-mail from external e-mail systems that bypass UTSA e-mail filters.
