Suggestion – Ahead of the Election Voting Email You May Wish to:
Review your settings at netid.rutgers.edu in advance:
- On the left-hand side of the webpage scroll down then click on “Manage Email Addresses” this will take you to the NetID Login-CAS, enter your netID and password, click on the “Login” button.
- On the top of the page there will be tabs, click on “Manage Email addresses” to review the email addresses in the various boxes that will appear. Explanations of the email address labels are on the left-hand side of the page.
- You will want to check with your Information Technology specialist in your department before changing any of these settings/email addresses.
- Scroll down to your “delivery email account.” For most of you, this will be an “[user]@connect.rutgers.edu” address. If so, attempt to log into your Connect inbox now if you do not already use it regularly (go to connect.rutgers.edu).
- URA-AFT only receives and uses the [netID]@rutgers.edu email. For most, this will show as the very first email address in the “personalized email addresses” box.
Check your “Junk Mail” Settings:
In your Outlook settings, check the “Junk Mail” section to see if URA-AFT is blocked. There are a list of “blocked senders” and “safe senders”. You can delete the URA-AFT email address from the “blocked” list and add URA-AFT to the “safe” list.
