How do I set up email forwarding?
In WesMail, click the little plus sign next to "My Account" in the left sidebar. Then click "Filters" in the menu that appears. Click "Forward" and you can enter your new email address in the box below -- perhaps "thank_heaven_im_retired@hotmail.com" or just "jrandom@nebrwesleyan.edu". If you want, you can uncheck the box that says "Keep a copy of messages in this account?" and you won't have to worry about your WesMail quota -- otherwise, when your NWU mailbox gets full, forwarding will start to fail. Many people set up email forwarding before they leave NWU; your forwarding rules will remain in effect for one year after your account is deleted, giving you a way to gracefully transition to another email address.
