3. Bulk-bounce messages from PINE to a new Exchange account (one folder, message, or group of messages at a time).

1. Change personal email delivery point

1. Go to the following Website: http://its.syr.edu/netid

Once a user changes their delivery point, no new email will be delivered to the old SU email systems. All new email will be delivered into the new SU Exchange systems. Do not complete this step until you are prepared to continue with the rest of the conversion process. No email will be lost, but the user will not have access to it until they have moved to the new Exchange system.

2. Setup a new Exchange account in Outlook 2003

1. Start Microsoft Office Outlook 2003.
2. Click Tools à E-mail Accounts… . If asked to close Outlook at any point during this process, do so and complete the remaining steps in this section using the Mail section of the Windows Control Panel.
3. At the E-mail Accounts wizard, select "Add a new e-mail account" and then click the Next button.
4. For Server Type, choose Microsoft Exchange Server and then click the Next button.
5. On the Exchange Server Settings dialog, do the following:
   1. Enter outlook.ad.syr.edu as the Microsoft Exchange Server.
   2. Clear the check from the Use Cached Exchange Mode box.
   3. Enter your SU NetID on the User Name line.
   4. Click the Check Name button.
6. You will be asked to enter your username and password to confirm your mailbox name. Enter your NetID as follows: AD\<NetID> and click Ok. If your NetID and password are accepted, the name of the Microsoft Exchange Server will change to a setting appropriate to the specific user and the User Name will change to the User’s full name.
7. Click Next then Finish
8. You will be prompted to enter your NetID (username) and Password again to gain access to your email account.

3. Bulk-bounce messages from PINE to a new Exchange account

If you use PINE, you can use the Bounce (redirect) command to pass a currently stored message to another e-mail account without altering the original sender information. The message will arrive at the new e-mail address as if it came from the original sender.

First, you must change 2 PINE settings:

To turn on "enable-aggregate-command-set" do the following:

1. Press S for Setup, then C for Configuration.
2. Scroll to "enable-aggregate-command-set" and press enter.
3. Press E to exit Configuration.
4. When prompted to "commit the changes," press Y for yes.

To turn on "enable-bounce-cmd" do the following:

1. Press S for Setup, then C for Configuration.
2. Scroll to "enable-bounce-cmd" and press enter.
3. Press E to exit Configuration.
4. When prompted to "commit the changes," press Y for yes.

To redirect a single message:

1. Open PINE, and open the message you wish to transfer.
2. Select B for the Bounce (redirect) command. (The ‘B’ menu item is in the 3rd menu window when viewing the message. Press O twice to see it on the screen if you wish.)
3. Type the new recipient email address.
4. Press Enter to send it.

To redirect a group of messages:

If you have the "enable-aggregate-command-set" option turned on in the PINE configuration menu (above), you will also be able to select entire groups of messages to redirect to another email address.

1. While viewing a Folder Index, select and open the folder containing the messages you wish to bounce
2. Type ‘;’ (the Select command is a semi-colon), to chose the selection method of your choice.
3. Type A to select ALL messages within a folder. To select some of the messages within the folder, type in the numbers of the messages you want to forward.
4. Type A, this time to APPLY a command to the selected messages.
5. Type B to redirect or "Bounce" the selected messages.
6. Type an email address to which you wish to redirect the selected messages and press enter.
7. Press Y or enter to send the message.
