<p> How to Set Up Forwarding for Your Student Email Address</p><p>Please be aware that you need to remember the password to your UMB email account even if you set it to forward to your personal email account. Your UMB email username and password are the same which you will need to access Blackboard, the Wikispaces site, wireless on campus, printing on campus, logging onto campus computers, and the Emergency Alert Notification System (accessed through WISER). </p><p>Step 1: Please go to http://outlook.com. When you log in, make sure you log in with your full UMB email address (firstname.lastname00#@umb.edu) and put in your password. If you do not remember your password, please go to http://webmail.umb.edu. Click the first link in the yellow box, which says "Click here to reset your password." All you need to reset your password are: your email username (firstname.lastname00#), your UMS number, and a new password of your creation. Step 2: Once you log in, go to “Options.”</p><p>Step 3: This will bring you to the screen below, where there is a link that says “Forward your mail using Inbox rules.” Click on that link. Step 4: Once you are at the screen below, “Inbox Rules” should be the tab which is already open. If this is not the case, make sure that “Organize E-Mail” is selected in the left-hand menu and then click on the “Inbox Rules” tab. Click on “New” to create a new rule. Step 5: A new window will open with a drop down menu with the heading“When the message arrives.” Select “[Apply to all messages].” Step 6: A second drop down box will appear. Select “Redirect the message to…” Step 7: The Student Global Address Book will appear. This is a list of all students in UMass Boston with an email address. You can ignore the list of names. In the “To” field below, type the email address to which you wish to forward your email. Step 8: Once you have typed your email address, click “OK.” This will bring you back to the previous screen. Now, you should see your email to the right of the “Do the following” box. Verify that the email address is correct. Click “Save” to complete the procedure. </p><p>If you run into any problems or have any questions/concerns, please feel free to contact the IT Service Desk at 617-287-5220 or email us at [email protected], open Monday through Friday from 8am to 6pm. </p>
