Sending Email
- Emails you send come from your university email address. If you have a department alias and need your emails to appear to come from that instead there are two options.
- Make the alias your default email address. Contact the UIS main helpdesk.
- Keep your university email address as your default address and choose the alias from the From menu when you need to use it. If this fails for you then contact your head of department PA. They will edit the alia to register it as one that is allowed to send email.
