How to Set Up and Manage Shared Email

Note: To use Shared Email, your @stanford.edu email address must be selected as the email address that is used in your directory listing.
To verify, go to stanfordyou.stanford.edu. Click Maintain your directory and AlertSU emergency contact information. Under SU contact info, click change. In the Email address section, make sure your @stanford mail address is selected as the email address you want to include in your directory listing.

Shared Email has two components:

  • Group mailbox, for which mail sent to the Shared Email address is sent to a mailbox accessible to all group members, and

To use Shared Email:

  1. Request the Shared Email service
  2. Set up an email program, such as Webmail or Outlook, to access your Shared Email.
