Blocked email: external forwarding is disabled

UFV student accounts are not permitted to auto-forward email to a private mail system (e.g. Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail). If mail is auto-forwarded, you will receive a bounce back stating that your email was blocked because external forwarding is disabled. To fix this error, remove the forwarding rule.
