The Student & Alumni Email legacy service (name@alumni.ubc.ca) will continue to operate, but no further changes to these aliases will be possible after August 17, 2020. Email will continue to be delivered to the destination set prior to this date.

The Student and Alumni Email Service is an optional combination of email aliasing, forwarding, and UBC hosted mailbox. Users of this service can obtain a UBC email address, name@alumni.ubc.ca, which can be forwarded to either an external or UBC hosted mailbox.
Email Forwarding Service
All students and alumni are eligible to sign up for a UBC email forwarding address, name@alumni.ubc.ca, which can be used even after graduation. This address can be forwarded to an email mailbox of your choice (external or UBC hosted mailbox.)
This is an email forwarding service only, and does not include any kind of mailbox or mail storage services.
