Updating Your Email Software for Illinois.edu

This page contains information about updating your email software to use your new @illinois.edu address.

Everyone on the Urbana campus with a NetID@uiuc.edu email address now has a new NetID@illinois.edu address.

(For details, go to the Illinois Domain Project page.)

To start using your new address, you will need to make a few changes to your email software.

Change your From: address

Users of the Express Email web interface will have their From: address automatically changed to their new email address on July 14, 2008.

But if you want to get started using your new address before then, you can change it manually:
