To change your directory forwarding address go to the Physics Account Options page. Enter your Current Physics Password to verify your identity, update your E-mail Forwarding Address, and click Update Account to save your changes.

Email forwarding and vacation or out-of-office messages can be set up through the Physics webmail system (remember, though, that directory forwarding takes precedence over anything set up in webmail: any webmail filters will be ignored if directory forwarding is specified).

You can also set up a “vacation” message, which will be sent back to anyone who sends you mail while you are away for any reason. It will only send the reply once to any one person, and it will not reply to mailing lists.
