Introduction
When you join the University a record in the lookup directory is created containing your name, CRSiD and email address. As a default it is assumed that you are using a crsid@cam.ac.uk email address. Many people at the Clinical School are using different email addresses and in order to receive official University email messages you should have the correct address in your lookup directory entry.
You can choose to send your @cam mail to any valid email address. Note that if You should only redirect your email to another valid University address. If you choose to send your @cam mail to a system outside the University then you may experience problems getting help if something goes wrong.Setting You may also be inappropriately exposing internal communications to external systems.
Not setting the delivery arrangements for your @cam address may result in emails never being received or sitting in another mailbox that you do not commonly check. We therefore recommend that you set the destination mailbox for your @cam address to the mailbox that you most commonly use. This can be done via in lookup http://www.lookup.cam.ac.uk/self .
The @cam delivery address is a 'private attribute', visible only to you (and the Lookup data administrators) and therefore changeable only by you.
