Why does my email address have to be First.Last@humboldt.edu in Zimbra?
In short, this helps protect your privacy and confidential data. Because you login with your HSU User Name (abc123) to a number of systems that contain confidential information, we want to protect that User Name from being displayed. One way to do this is to display your email address as First.Last@humboldt.edu. This allows people to easily find you, but it also protects your HSU User Name from being given out. This email address will also soon be your displayed address in the Campus Directory. Read more about your public and private identity at www.humboldt.edu/~its/techguides/security/identities.
