Configure Forwarding ("start redirecting email to my new account") checkbox
When checked, will cause a forwarding alias to be created on the
chemistry mail server, which will redirect all future mail addressed to your old
@chem.washington.edu email address, to your new email address.
You may elect to postpone commitment by leaving this box unchecked. "Launch" will start
the copying of your stored email to your new account, but your incoming email will continue to be
delivered to your old, chem email account.
If you do choose to postpone redirection in this way, then you will need to take the
additional step, later when you are ready to make the leap, of updating your
new account with any mail that has arrived in your old inbox since your
previous copy. Return to the
eMail Migration Tool page, set the "After" date field, check the "Update" box and also
check "Configure Forwarding" and click submit. This will cause your new email
account to be updated with any messages that have arrived since your last
update before you finalize your transition to your new mail service.
