On Big Red at IU, how do I make LoadLeveler send mail to a specific email address?

By default, LoadLeveler on Big Red at Indiana University sends mail to the email address you provided when you requested your account. To make LoadLeveler send mail to a specific email address, put the following line in the job command file:

Replace  johndoe@gmail.com  with your preferred email address. This instructs LoadLeveler to send email to the specified email address for this particular job. If the keyword notification is not specified, LoadLeveler simply mails the local user account, which may or may not have a ~/.forward file.

For more on the ~/.forward file, see How do I forward my mail from a Unix account?
