E-mail forwarding

You have two options for forwarding or redirecting emails. If you only want to forward your mails to one address, you can set this up very easily in IDM. However, if you want to forward/redirect your mails to several people, you can do this via Outlook web access. You can find instructions for both options here.

Open the website https://www.uni-kassel.de/go/userapp and click on "Request access" on the start page.

Now select "Set up e-mail forwarding".

Then please fill out the form that opens.

Under "Action", select "Enable/change forwarding".

Please confirm the note by ticking the box and enter the email address to which you would like to forward your emails under "Forwarding address".

Under "Leave copy in mailbox", you can choose whether the mail is forwarded directly or whether a copy of the mail is also kept on the Exchange server.

"True" means that the copy is left in the mailbox, "False" means that no copy is created.

You can only set one mail address as the forwarding address in this way. If you want to forward the mail to several people, you must create a corresponding rule in Outlook web access. In general, however, you should consider using a mailing list or a group mailbox if you have several recipients.

To change or delete, click on "Set up email forwarding" again

You can now use the selection field under "Action" to choose whether you want to delete or change the forwarding.

Open Outlook web access at mail.uni-kassel.de/owa in your internet browser and log in with your Exchange University account.

First click on the cogwheel in the top right-hand corner of the screen to open the settings.

Then select "Inbox and clean-up rules" under the Email category.

To create a new inbox rule, click on the "+" symbol.

First give the new rule a name of your choice. Then select "Apply to all messages" to forward all messages.

The action to be applied to the selected mails should be selected below this. Click on "Forward, redirect or send" and then "Redirect message to...".

The last step is to select the person or account to which the mails are to be forwarded. You can also add exceptions.
