New Employee Orientation
To initiate an official UMontana email alias, you need to indicate in CyberBear which email account you prefer to receive official email. A nightly process will activate the UMontana alias and point it to the email account you indicated.
To activate your UMontana alias, log in to CyberBear:
- Click on Personal Information.
- In the Email section either
- Click Add New and add a Preferred email address
- Email Type: Your work/personal e-mail accounts
- Email Address: enter your MSO address here (usually first.last@mso.umt.edu)
- Mark as Preferred: Check the box
- Click Add
- Edit (the pencil) an existing Preferred email address
- Email Address: Update to your MSO address (usually first.last@mso.umt.edu)
- Click Update
- Click Add New and add a Preferred email address
You can view, insert and update your email account(s) under Your work/personal Email Account(s). If you do not see your email account, you will need to enter this information. University employees may only list an official email account (e.g. sally.example@mso.umt.edu). If you have questions about your email account, please contact your departmental IT administrator or IT Central at 243-HELP.
A nightly process will activate or update the UMontana alias.
