For those of you who are interesting in knowing how to get email from your MSU account forwarded to another carrier, here is how you do

1. Go the to MSU homepage. (www.mnsu.edu)
2. Click on link, Current Students
3. Click on link, Online Resources
4. Then Click on User ID information
5. Click on Forwarding from the mail-server
6. Click on User Chosen E-mail Address
7. Then Click on Continue
8. Enter your Tech #/Student ID and enter your Soc.Sec. #.
9. Click Submit.
10. At the “Mail Forward Query” screen, type in your new email address.

Upon doing the above steps, all your messages received at your Mankato email address will be forwarded to your other email account.

Note: Professors often try to contact students using their MSU email address because these are already set up in a database. So if you never check your MSU email, you may want to do the above in the event a professor is trying to reach you.
