Login to Webmail
If you want to permanently forward your albany.edu email to another address, you need to set up a rule in Webmail. This email application is accessible via your web browser at webmail.albany.edu.
To create a forwarding rule, please log into Webmail with your netid and UNIX password.
return to top Get started
On the taskbar at the top of the Webmail screen, click on "Options". On the next screen that appears, click on "Mail Filtering". Click on "Add a New Rule".
return to top Set up all messages
Click the radio button next to "All Messages" and then click the "Move on to step 2 >>" button at the bottom of the screen.
return to top Set redirect
Click the radio button next to the line labeled "Redirect to the following email address:". Then (in the text box below that line) type in the email address you want all of your UA mail to be forwarded to.
return to top Confirm rule
Once you've completed the text box entry, click "Move on to step 4>>". You are then asked to Confirm the forwarding rule that you just created.
If you are satisfied with the rule (after reading it carefully), click Finished.
return to top Activate forwarding
On the next screen that appears, you should see the rule listed. Click Save Changes to activate the rule.
This completes the process to set forwarding.
return to top Turn off forwarding
If you no longer want your mail forwarded, turn it off following these steps.
To turn the forwarding setting off, logon to webmail.albany.edu again with your netid and UNIX password. Click on "Options" and then "Mail Filtering". On the page that displays your rules, click in the box displayed next to the forwarding rule (a checkmark will appear in the box) and then click "Delete Selected". Click "Save Changes" to activate the change and thus remove your Forwarding rule.
