A simple s/sun.com/oracle.com/ won't work for e-mail. It would need to be
repeated runs of per-user mappings, since many users got different
addresses
at Oracle, due to name changes (hi Val!), or conflicts with the 80,000+
existing Oracle employee names, etc. Also, different countries are
migrating
at different times - right now, only employees in 5 countries
(including the
US) have migrated to oracle.com e-mail - many developers from our Asian
and European locations would have their e-mails bounce if you switched to
oracle.com addresses for them now.
IIRC, the mail will forward for several (9?) months. We'll investigate
what our automation options are, as some things are being done
internally for mappings that might prove useful.
Given all we have going on right now moving our data centers, a global
swap probably won't happen until May at the earliest, but we'll verify
when the mail forwarding will end before we pick dates.
If people want to updated their individual accounts in meantime, feel free.
