Thankfully in academia things are very relaxed. I just thought of a friend who has this problem and then I realised I know at least 2-3 people in office jobs who have similar issues. I'm in the UK btw.
Academia is indeed relaxed. Most academics I know have their .forward file point to their gmail.
Indeed. Gmail is just about the only successful pine killer I've ever witnessed.
In financial services there are excellent regulatory and operational reasons for blocking a wide variety of web sites.
