How to change your default email address to mnstate.edu
Notes
- If your contact primary email is already set to the @mnstate.edu address you don't have to change anything.
- Only one email address can be selected as a primary email address. This is the email that will show as your FROM: address.
- All email addresses assigned to you at any other MinnState institutions (that have migrated to the MinnState Office 365 Single Tenant) are assigned to this email account, so this inbox will accept any email sent to all of these addresses. However, your FROM: address will have to be selected as directed in the steps below and this will be the default on all email that you send.
- This change may take 4-5 hours to go through the system, please give it time to do so.
Instructions
- Go to starid.minnstate.edu and select "Sign in to Profile".
- Sign in with your StarID and StarID password.
- Select Office 365 Contact.
- Towards the bottom of the contact card, click on "Select New Student (or) Employee Contact Card".
- Select your MSU Moorhead email address:
- This is typically firstname.lastname@mnstate.edu or an abbreviated form of your last and firstname. This email was assigned to you when you were first admitted to the University or hired by the University.
- This change may take 4-5 hours to go through the system, please give it time to do so.
