Questions About the Display of Your Email Addresses
How will my University email address vary from my local email address?

Your local email address appears as name@aismail.wustl.edu, or name@school.wustl.edu, that is, it may contain the name of the school, unit, or even the fileserver name for your email. Your University email address will be simpler and appear as name@wustl.edu.

What name will appear in the University email address?

The name assigned to your University email address will be the one currently used in your local email address. For example, First_Last@aismail.wustl.edu, will be First_Last@wustl.edu; or ABC@school.wustl.edu, will be ABC@wustl.edu. Individuals with email addresses that contain an underscore are strongly encouraged to select a new email address from the selections offered through the HR Faculty and Staff Self Service system.
