Using E-mail
This manual describes using e-mail (username@hgc.jp).
* HGC mail service will be terminated by 2019.
We send out important e-mails, so please make sure you are able to read them. We do not mind if you configure your HGC e-mails to be forwarded to a different e-mail address.
- If you didn't want to use HGC e-mail address in your application, we configure your HGC e-mails to be forwarded to the e-mail address that was written in your application form. If your e-mail address changes, please contact to Supercomputing secretariat.
