Local Addresses and the Central Mail Hub >> Email Destinations

Email destinations are normally set up automatically before or soon after arrival at the University. These are set up to point to a University based mailbox according to the policy of the school or department concerned. However, you are free to choose where their email is delivered if you choose not to use your University mailbox. Please see the policy section before changing an email destination.

Changing an email Destination

An email destination can be changed using a form on the World Wide Web. First, go to the mailhub main page (mailhub.bham.ac.uk), then select the redirect mail option.

MailHub drop-down list

You will need to give your Active Directory (adf) username, and password when prompted to do so. This is to prevent unauthorised users fro redirecting your email to a new destination.

Username and Password prompt

Once you have done this, you will be presented with a form from which you can make the desired change or changes.

Finding an Email Destination

From the mailhub main page (mailhub.bham.ac.uk), select the look up mail addresses option. A form will allow you to find the current destination for your central email address or any other central email address.
