[Toolserver-l] New account renewal system

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, We are changing how account renewals work from now on. Instead of sending mail to have your account renewed manually, all users will be able to renew their own account by running "acctrenew" on a Solaris login server (e.g. willow). You will receive email notifications 28 days, 7 days and 1 day before your account expires. This mail will tell you how to renew your account (i.e., run acctrenew). There will be no notifications via the mailing list, so you need to make sure your Toolserver email address is up-to-date. You cannot run acctrenew until 28 days before your account expiry. It will extend your account for six months from the day you run it (not six months from your current expiry). This system should be easier for everyone, since users can renew their accounts immediately, and admins don't have to do anything. If you allow your account to expire, you will not be able to renew it yourself. That still requires sending mail to ts-admins@. - river.
