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 but once you have moved to Exchange Online, all messages sent to either an @cam or an @medschl address will appear in the same mailbox. However, you may wish to change the email address that is visible to your colleagues and the public in the UoC Lookup service. This can be done in lookup http://www.lookup.cam.ac.uk/self .

You can forward your @cam mail to any valid email address. However, 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. You may also be inappropriately exposing internal communications to external systems.

Instructions

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

Change your @cam delivery arrangements to go to an @medschl address

Go to your personal page on 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.

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'

Change your delivery arrangements from @medschl to @cam address
