Want to set up your Usyd UniKey email account and/or IT email account to forward to your regular email address?

Forwarding your UniKey Email

UniKey email is your university-wide account. In 2009, the uni has moved student email accounts to a new service running on Outlook Live. Your email address is now unikey@uni.sydney.edu.au. Here are some tips from SUITS to get the most out of your new email account.

To transfer your email from your old account to your new one, follow these instructions.

If you like to automatically forward your uni email to a non-uni account, you can redirect all emails by following these instructions.

To pick up your uni email via POP, the POP server is outlook.com, port 995 (if you enable SSL). The username to provide is unikey@uni.sydney.edu.au. For more advanced setups including SMTP, take a look at this.

Forwarding IT Email

If you have an account with SIT, then you’ll have an IT email address. While not much emails are sent this this address (unless you tell people to), you might get the odd email every now and then.

$ ssh USERNAME@mail.ug.it.usyd.edu.au
$ mailforward -a ADDRESS
