Migrate to Exchange
This tutorial will not allow you to migrate your email from CU Boulder Gmail to CU Boulder Microsoft Exchange (Outlook). To request a migration, please fill out the New Exchange Mailbox Request form on the Messaging and Collaboration Request Portal. You will need to be connected to the CU Boulder VPN to access the form.
Step
Go to the IdentiKey Manager website (https://identikey.colorado.edu/) and select Manage my Email and Calendar Service.
Step
Log in to CU Boulder's Federated Identity Service using your IdentiKey username and IdentiKey password.
Please note: You may be prompted by Duo if you are enrolled in multi-factor authentication.
Step
Your current email service will be displayed under Preferred Email and Calendar Service. This is where your emails are delivered. If you haven't made any changes, it will say either "CU Boulder Gmail and Google Calendar" or "CU Boulder Exchange/Outlook Email and Calendar".
If you need to change this, click the Change Email and Calendar Service button to enter another service (e.g. one of the listed domains above). Changing your preferred email and calendar service will forward all mail send to your @colorado.edu address without saving a copy in your CU Boulder Exchange or Gmail inbox.
Please note: You will be required to manage any migration of email, and you may need departmental approval to move away from the OIT recommended email and calendaring service.
Step
If you're ready to change your email home to one of the approved domains listed above, select Use Other Email and Calendar, then enter the email address you'd like your mail to be delivered to.

Step
Forwarding Email for Alumni or other Affiliates
If you're ready to forward your email messages to a personal account, completely bypassing the campus-provided Gmail or Exchange Online services, select Use Other Email and Calendar, then enter the new personal email address you'd like messages forwarded to. This will allow you to continue receiving mail addressed to your @colorado.edu email address without logging in to CU Boulder's email instance.
