WELCOME TO THE UC DAVIS EMAIL FORWARDING SERVICE!
If you are a UC Davis graduate, retiree, or have otherwise separated
from the campus community, but wish to continue receiving email from
your UC Davis email address, you may be eligible for an optional and
complimentary service that will forward your mailid@ucdavis.edu email to an external
email address of your choice (e.g., user@yahoo.com). This forwarding
service will apply only to new incoming email sent to your mailid@ucdavis.edu
address after you register.
ELIGIBILITY AND REGISTERING A FORWARDING ADDRESS
If you are currently affiliated with UC Davis, you may register
a forwarding address at any time. If you separated from the
campus community on or after the following dates, you are also
eligible to register an
external email address in the allotted timeframe. So as not
to forget, you should do this as soon as possible after your
separation.

within 6 months from when you receive notification that your UC Davis mailbox will be deleted |
| Student | June 1, 2005 | |

To register for the UC Davis email forwarding service, you will prompted
to supply the following information:
- Your full name
- Your former student or staff ID number
- Your former UC Davis LoginID and Kerberos password
- An external email address at which you want to receive your forwarded
email
When you’re ready, simply click on the “Register” button on the left side of this page.
Another consideration at this time, while your UC Davis password is still fresh in your mind, is to take advantage of the Online Password Reset Service. Once you have registered for lifetime email forwarding, it will be necessary for you to renew your participation every two years by coming back to this Web site.
SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES
If you have separated from UC Davis and currently receive your
mailid@ucdavis.edu email:
- At an external ISP address (e.g., user@yahoo.com), you are already registered for the email forwarding service and will be given the opportunity to renew in two years.
- Through a non-campus email server (i.e., user@department.ucdavis.edu), you are already registered for the email forwarding service and will be given the opportunity to renew in two years. It is your responsibility to make sure this will continue to be a valid email account.
ABOUT YOUR UC DAVIS EMAIL MAILBOX
When you graduate, retire, or otherwise separate from the campus
community, your UC Davis mailbox is deleted according to campus policy,
and any email remaining in the mailbox will also be deleted. Remember
to make arrangements to copy any data files or other contents from your
UC Davis mailbox before it is deleted. Registering an external email
address will NOT prevent the contents of your UC Davis mailbox from
being automatically deleted in accordance with campus policy.
