We frequently get asked, which one of these is my email?
- joeminer@mst.edu
- joeminer@umsystem.edu
- joeminer@mail.mst.edu
- joeminer@mail.umsystem.edu
- joeminer@missouri.edu
The ones that are not your email address.
It is definitely not @mail.mst.edu. We used to have @mail.mst.edu email addresses when some of the student mail was served by Microsoft and some of it was served by Google. Those have been gone for about 5 to 8 years after a successful migration to Microsoft Azure. There may be students on campus that were freshmen back then that still have an email alias that ends with @mail.mst.edu.
If you are using @missouri.edu, @umsl.edu or @umkc.edu, it is probably because you have transferred. We try to catch all transfers because if their account is not migrated to this campus they find that they cannot access all resources on campus. Some of the more frequently used resources that are shared by all campuses are reachable with these accounts, but many of them are for S&T students, faculty, and staff only and will not be accessible without an account migration. Please go to it.mst.edu, click on the chat icon, and ask someone to help you get your account migrated to our campus.
Your email address ends in @mst.edu.
All students, faculty, and staff of the S&T campus have an mst.edu email which ends with @mst.edu. There are cases where students, faculty, and staff may have email aliases that have other things after the @, but those are odd one-off cases.
If you have any doubt as to what your email address currently is you can find out by going to the Authoritative Identity Management System (AIMS). On the self-service page it shows your primary email address in the upper right, as well as enumerating any other email addresses that will also delivery to your mailbox.
What is the difference between a login and an email?
All students, faculty, and staff at all campuses of the UM System have a Microsoft Azure login that looks curiously like an email and ends with @umsystem.edu, but is in fact not an actual email address. This is your single sign-on id. You use your single sign-on to access campus resources such as wifi or email. You also use a single sign-on id to logon to computers on campus, but in that case we presuppose you are using an account that is part of the UM-AD domain, so you don’t have to type that in.
If you have further question or need help migrating your account, please go to it.mst.edu, click on the chat icon, and ask one of our S&T IT staff members for help.
