OIT Email Support: UAF Email

PLEASE NOTE...

UA Statewide and UAF Faculty and Staff: All active faculty and staff accounts will be migrated to Google Apps @ UA between now and January 8th, 2010. Any faculty or staff email address currently ending in @uaf.edu or @email.alaska.edu will be affected by this change.

Current @uaf.edu and @email.alaska.edu users are asked to sign up for their new Google Apps @ UA account as soon as possible—the sooner the better. During this transfer, any mail that is currently stored in one's email account will be automatically transferred into the new Google Apps @ UA account. To begin this transfer, go to the Google Apps @ UA Sign-Up page. New accounts are created each business day; you will be notified via your current email address when your new account is ready.

If you choose not to sign up, your account will be migrated for you during the week of January 4th, 2010.

New to UA Statewide or UAF? A Google Apps @ UA account has been created for you. To access your new account go to google.alaska.edu.

To reset your password for your UA Google email account use the ELMO self reset password tool. elmo.alaska.edu

Usermin - Changing Password

How to Change Your Password in Usermin

1. Access your Email account online, and login to Usermin:

Log in to your account on-line by entering one of the following URLs in your web browser window:

http://fnabc.email.uaf.edu

https://fnabc.email.uaf.edu

where "fnabc" is replaced with your user name.

Your browser may, in some cases, have security settings which result in error messages when you use the first URL listed above. In this case, you would then use the second URL beginning with "https" to resolve this.

In both cases you will reach a simple web page that contains a Usermin link and a Webmail link. Click on the Usermin link and the login page will appear where you will then enter your username and email password, as shown below:

Login to Usermin

2. Click the Login button on the main Usermin toolbar to access the Change Password feature.

4. You will type in your old password, then your new one twice. Click on the Change Password button when ready.
