Instructions to Forward your Email from USF account to personal account

Forward your USF email to your personal email account
E-mails sent to students through the course portal (myUSF) go directly to the student's official USF e-mail address (either mail or helios accounts.) Since many students do not regularly check these accounts, you will need to provide a forwarding address to direct your USF e-mail to your home accounts (aol, yahoo, etc.) or to the HSC account you created. To ensure that you are receiving all messages sent by the instructor, it is imperative that you take the following steps:

  • Go to the UNA main page at: https://una.acomp.usf.edu/
  • Log in normally with your NetID and password
  • On the left-hand side you will see a list of your "accounts." Click on Net ID and then select Edit Net ID Account Options from the top menu.
  • To select which account you would like as your official USF account, select an address from the drop down menu and click OK. (NOTE: If you do NOT have an HSC account already established, you will only have one selection and can disregard this step.)
  • Click on the account on the left-hand side (either mail, helios, or HSC) that you have just chosen in step 4.
  • You should now see your official USF e-mail address listed. To forward mail from this account to your personal account, please select Edit mail (or helios, HSC) Account Options from the top menu.
  • To set your USF email account to forward all messages to another email address of your choice, type the address in the space provided. Click in the button next to "Forward email to the address below." Then click OK.
  • To make sure the address you typed in is now your forwarding address, select mail (or helios, HSC) Account Information from the top menu. The address should be listed.
