UVa Email Address Management System (AMS)

Manage Your Deliverable Addresses

[Nov 23, 2009 14:09] Web access to Microsoft Live@edu accounts now works.

You may use the Email Address Management System's Manage Deliverable Addresses function to:

After adding a deliverable address, you can then use the AMS 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.

Add or Delete a Deliverable Address

How to Add a Deliverable Address to the AMS

  1. Go to the UVa Email Address Management System and log in through NetBadge.
  2. Select Manage Deliverable Addresses.
  3. In the box beside Add a deliverable address... type a working email address you have. You may add up to 5 email addresses to the AMS.
  4. 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.
  5. Close the UVa Email Address Management System window.
  6. Check the email account you just added 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.
  7. Click the link in the email confirmation message to activate the deliverable address.
    • When you click the link, the Email Address Management System will open again in a new browser window, showing the deliverable address you have added to the system, and its status. The requested email account should now be marked Active. (It must be an Active address before you can associate it with your primary address or email aliases.)
  8. You have successfully added this email account to the AMS. You may now associate it with your UVa email alias and/or primary address if you would like to read your UVa mail at the account you just added.

How to Delete a Deliverable Address

There is no penalty for creating and deleting deliverable addresses, though there are consequences for deleting an alias.

  1. Go to the UVa Email Address Management System and log in through NetBadge.
  2. Select Manage Deliverable Addresses.
  3. Continue according to whether the address you want to delete is associated with your primary address or an email alias:
    • If the deliverable address you want to remove is associated with your primary address, you must reassign another deliverable address to your primary address;
    • If the deliverable address you want to remove has one or more aliases associated with it, you must reassign another deliverable address to your aliases before you can remove the deliverable address.
  4. Check the box beside Remove from use that corresponds with the deliverable address to be deleted.
  5. Click the Submit button. You have removed the deliverable address.
