How does the proxy e-mail facility work and how do you prevent headhunters, junk-mailers and others from targeting alumni listed in the database?
The IITDEF Alumni Directory listings never display the actual e-mail address of any alumni. Instead, anyone wishing to send an e-mail must locate the IITian in the database and fill out a form, which then sends out a message without the sender ever seeing the actual e-mail address. Subsequently, if the recipient so chooses, s/he can respond to the sender and thereby establish direct e-mail contact between the two consenting alumni. In addition, members are also restricted from sending more than a pre-set number of messages to protect members from mass mailings. If you wish to contact a large group of alumni via the database, please write to webmaster@iitdef.org in advance explaining the reasons.
