Introduction
You can choose to send your @cam mail to any valid email address. Note that 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 the destination mailbox for your @cam address can be done via 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.
Instructions - To view your current @cam arrangements
Go to your personal page on Lookup - http://www.lookup.cam.ac.uk/self.
- The Email address field is a public list of addresses for other people to contact you and normally includes your @cam or @medschl address
- The @cam delivery address field specifies where messages sent to your @cam address will be delivered
- The Edit button allows you to change, add and remove these settings, as described below
Instructions - To change your @cam delivery arrangements
Go to your personal page on Lookup - http://www.lookup.cam.ac.uk/self.
- Select the 'Edit' button towards the bottom of the page
- Scroll down to @cam delivery address
- In the 'Value' drop down select 'Other' and then in the field enter the desired email address. For example, if you want your mail delivered to your medschl account type in 'CRSiD'@medschl.cam.ac.uk. Make sure you enter the address correctly as Lookup does not check to see whether what you have entered is a valid address.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and click 'Save'
