Important Announcement for Gmail Users
As a result of a recent Gmail change, new SIGGRAPH aliases can no longer be added to Gmail as outgoing email addresses. If you've already added your SIGGRAPH alias to Gmail, however, it will continue to work. The Information Services Committee is working with ACM to see what options are available to make SIGGRAPH aliases compatible with Gmail once again.
