Changing Your Forwarding Address in Netmail

  1. Log into Netmail - http://webmail.students.ipfw.edu/ (either regular or secure). You can also access Netmail by logging into myIPFW and clicking the E-mail link in the upper right-hand corner.
  2. Click the Options icon (middle icon in the top row of 3 icons - Help, Options, Exit)
  3. Netmail - Options

  4. Click the Mailbox Management tab
  5. Netmail - Mailbox Management

  6. Click Yes to Forward All New Messages
  7. Click No to Keep Copy
  8. Type your forwarding e-mail address in the Forward to: box
  9. Click the Save button.
  10. Click the Close button.

Caveats:

  1. After doing this, you should send yourself a message at your IPFW address to make sure it gets forwarded properly. If it does not you probably typed the address wrong. You can repeat the procedure and edit the entry. Test it again till it works.
  2. Saying Yes to Keep Copy could result in filling up your IPFW mailbox causing the eventual bouncing of future e-mail, unless you read/manage e-mail in both places.

If you have any questions or problems, feel free to call the Help Desk at 481-6030.
