Introduction
An Exchange email only account provides a Microsoft Exchange email account that may or may not be associated with a single user. These email accounts can be used for ongoing University functions or special projects where one or more individuals need to share a common mailbox. The From field in email sent from an Exchange email only account can contain the name of the shared email account rather than the particular individual sending the email, for example, registrar@uwyo.edu.
Exchange email only account lengths are not limited to 8 characters. Display names can be most any text, including spaces. Disc space is allocated for each email account as if it were a normal user email account.
To access an Exchange email only account, a user must have a valid UW domain account and must have been given permission to access the email account.
For existing accounts, changes need to be requested or approved by the account holder.
