The IEEE now offers an Alias Service in which IEEE members can register or update a personal alias of their choice (subject to availability and on a "first come, first serve" basis). Messages addressed to the alias@ieee.org will automatically be forwarded to the real Internet e-mail address. This Alias Service also provides a virus scanning feature to help prevent you from receiving viruses in the first place. Attachments within your e-mail that are sent to your IEEE e-mail alias will be scanned for viruses. If a virus is found, the attachment will be deleted. An alert is then sent to both the sender and recipient. While the IEEE cannot guarantee that every virus will be found, the virus scanning software is updated weekly with a current virus recognition file. A service like this typically costs $30 per year, but as an IEEE member, it is yours FREE of charge.
To register to use IEEE's Alias Service via the web, go to http://mail.ieee.org/eleccomm/personal-aliases.html or send an e-mail to alias-info@ieee.org.
