You may use the Email Address Management Tool's Manage Deliverable Addresses function to:
- add a deliverable address to the system; or
- delete a deliverable address.
After adding a deliverable address, you can then use the Tool to associate it with your primary address (i.e., your UVa computing ID@virginia.edu) or an email alias. This enables you to read email addressed to your email alias or primary address at that account.
- Students are assigned a deliverable address in the email.virginia.edu domain with a UVa-contracted email vendor.
- New faculty and staff must add a deliverable address to the system before they can create their primary address or create an email alias.
Add or Delete a Deliverable Address
You may have a up to 5 deliverable addresses. There is no penalty for creating and deleting deliverable addresses, though there are consequences for deleting an alias.
Add a Deliverable Address
- Go to the UVa Email Address Management Tool and log in through NetBadge.
- Select Manage Deliverable Addresses.
- In the box beside Add a deliverable address... type a working email address. You may add up to 5 email addresses to the system.
- After adding a deliverable address, click
the Submit button.
- The email address you just requested will then be added to the system, but will be marked Inactive.
- You will see a message indicating that a confirmation email has been sent to the requested account.
- Close the UVa Email Address Management Tool window.
- Check the requested email account for the confirmation email message.
You must confirm within 3 days or your request will be deleted.
- Note: You will probably receive the message immediately, but delivery time to the account may vary. The email may be delivered to your junk or spam mail folder, so check there if you don't see it in your Inbox.
- Click the link in the email confirmation message to activate the deliverable address.
- When you click the link, the Email Address Management Tool will open in a new browser window, showing the deliverable addresses you have added to the system, and their status. The requested email account should now be marked Active.
- Note: You may use only your Active addresses for your primary address or email aliases.
After doing the above, you have added this email account as a deliverable address to the Email Address Management Tool, and can now begin associating UVa email aliases with it.
Delete a Deliverable Address
