USC E-mail

<p>So, I received my USC e-mail, and I was just wondering if we were allowed to change it? The last letter of my last name is cut off in both my username and e-mail, haha.</p>

<p>I googled this and found an old thread on here:
<a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-southern-california/500069-can-you-change-your-usc-email.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-southern-california/500069-can-you-change-your-usc-email.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>^ It says you can use <a href="mailto:firstname.lastname@usc.edu">firstname.lastname@usc.edu</a> for all e-mail purposes instead; has anyone done that before?</p>

<p>Thanks to anyone who can help! :)</p>

<p>the first-name-dot-last-name is an automatic alternative. It doesn’t change it. If you look at your email under the “options” tab, it should already be there.</p>

<p>^ Oh, I see it there under “options.” :slight_smile: Thanks!</p>

<p>i don’t know if usc does it automatically but never use the regular usc email. it’s terrible with a 75mb limit. use the usc google email. you can find it at google.usc.edu and click “don’t have an account? sign up here” and register with your USC username and password.</p>

<p>^ Agreed. Or if you have an existing Gmail account, just forward all your USC mail to your current Gmail account. Makes things a lot easier!</p>

<p>when do we get our emails? I havent gotten anything lol</p>

<p>^ You have to sign up for it yourself using ITS.</p>

<p><a href=“http://www.usc.edu/its/email/[/url]”>http://www.usc.edu/its/email/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>LOL how ignorant of me</p>

<p>You can export the regular USC email to IMAP, though.</p>
