How to set up email forwarding

The new webmail includes tools for managing your email forwarding. These instructions cover logging into webmail and using the webmail interface to manage your email forwarding. You are not required to use webmail as your primary method of accessing email to make use of webmail's forwarding tool. While the tool is part of the webmail interface, it manages email forwarding for anyone with a departmental (csbs) account, regardless of how you access your email.

• First, point your browser (ie. netscape, safari, internet explorer, etc..) to http://webmail.csbs.utah.edu
  
  
  
• Log in using your departmental email account's username and password.
  
  
  
• If it is your first time logging in to webmail, you may be presented with a "Maintenance" screen. Click the button labeled "Skip Maintenance".
• Once logged in, click "Forwards" located on the left side menu under "My Account" as in this example:
  
  
  
• Verify that "Set/install a forward to:" is selected. If not, click on the round dot next to the word "Set". Note that if you want to disable email forwarding, you should click the round dot next to the word "Unset"
• In the box to the right of "Set", type the email address that you want your email forwarded to.
• If you want a copy of your email retained in your csbs account, as well as forwarding your email to the address you specified, check the box to the left of "Keep a copy in your mailbox"
• Enter your password, the same password you logged in with, in the box labeled "Your password:" and click the "Submit" button

At this point any new messages addressed to your departmental email address (ie. firstname.lastname@dept.utah.edu) will be forwarded to the address you specified above. Any messages that arrived before you enabled forwarding will not be forwarded.
