What Should I do About My JMU Email When I Leave

For faculty members, you will have access to your employee email for only 30 days after the end of your employment. For staff, your access to your employee email account will be removed immediately upon termination. For part-time adjunct faculty members, you will have access to your employee email for only 130 days after the end of your employment. 

After that time, there is no way to grant access back into an email account without an active eID or HR role with the Univerisity. 

Before you leave employment:

  • Set an Out-of-Office reply indicating that you are no longer at the university and include an alternative way to contact you if applicable.
  • Change mailing list subscriptions to use your personal email address and un-subscribe from those you no longer wish to receive.
  • Forward any personal email in your JMU employee email account that you wish to retain to a personal email address.

 

Note: The times listed above may be significantly shorter or change, based on the recommendation of Human Resources, department, Role, and other factors.
