Why can graduating students have their email forwarded to their new email address?
This presents many problems, but basically it’s one of administration. How long do we forward email, how do we deal with problems if email starts to be rejected, and how much staff time can be afforded? There is also a real cost issue as Brookes would end up paying for the forwarding of lot of email. However, the Alumni Office offers a webmail service for all former students which provides an Oxford Brookes branded email account. Register with the alumni website before completing your studies at www.brookesalumni.co.uk/register and you will be able to apply for your free “Email for Life” address at www.oxfordbrookes.net. You can then transfer all your existing student emails across to this new account, prior to the closure of your student email account. Please note this “Email for Life ” account is not the responsibility of Computer Services, if you have any queries or problems relating to it. You need to contact the Alumni Office.
