This page explains how to forward emails which will be sent to your @s address (@s.tsukuba.ac.jp), to the other email address.

Please activate mail forwarding from “Office 365” forwarding setup menu.

After activation, please confirm that the forwarding settings are correct (e.g. by sending a test email).

Notes

• Please be careful not to create a loop on the forwarding route. Especially, those who set up forwarding @u address → @s address should never set to forward @s address → @u address.
• The size of your mailbox that can be stored on the server with @s address is limited. If you check “Keep a copy of forwarded messages” below, please occasionally check the usage, delete unnecessary emails, backup the necessary emails before deleting, etc. Please be careful to fit within the capacity limit. (To check your mailbox usage, click on the gear icon at the upper right corner of the Office 365 screen, select “Mail” in “My app settings” section, and click on [General]-[My account] in the appeared menu. Then your mailbox usage will be displayed at the lower right.)

How to activate mail forwarding

First, sign in to Office 365.

Input your Username (ユーザー名) and Password (パスワード), then click on [ログオン](Log On).
• Username: “s” + last 7 digits of your Student ID Number
• Password: Password for the Unified Authentication System
  
  Click on the “Outlook” to open the email.

Click on the gear icon at the upper right corner of the Office 365 screen and select “View all Outlook settings.

Click on [Mail]-[Forwarding].

Check the radio button “Enable forwarding” and input the email address to which you want to forward.
If you want to keep copies of emails to be forwarded, check “Keep a copy of forwarded messages”.

Check that there is no mistake in the input and click on “Save”.

Finally, send a test email to your @s address (s + the last seven digits of the student ID number @s.tsukuba.ac.jp) to confirm your settings.

* To cancel the forwarding setting, check the radio button “Disable forwarding” and click on “Save”. Even if you want to change the address for the forwarding destination, stop forwarding once and then set again.

Setting multiple addresses for the forwarding destination

In the above procedure, it is not possible to set multiple email addresses for the forwarding destination. If you want emails to be forwarded to multiple email addresses, please refer to the following approach.

1. 1. Select [Mail]-[Rules]-[Add new rule].
      
      • In “Name” enter an arbitrary name of the new rule.
      • On conditions select “Apply to all messages” if you want to forward all emails which will arrive. (If you do not want to apply to all messages then select the required conditional statement.)
      • Select [Forward to] as what to do.

 

1. 1. Specify contacts as the forwarding destination. You can specify more than one contact at a time.
      

 

1. Confirm whether the new Inbox rule was properly added.
   
2. Finally, send a test email to confirm your settings.
