Warning

While it is possible to forward your Lane email to your personal email, we don’t recommend it:

  1. Delivery of mail to you and from you will be less reliable; subject to spam filtering, delays, and delivery failures.
  2. It will make your private grade or other information less secure. 
  3. We cannot guarantee delivery or discoverability in the event of a complaint or legal issue.
