Activate your @phd.uniss.it mailbox

The @phd.uniss.it email address is reserved exclusively for those enrolled in PhD courses at the University of Sassari, from the XXXVI Cycle onwards.

The associated e-mail box will have a duration of 7 years starting from the date of enrolment of the PhD student in one of the Courses of this University, after which it will be automatically deactivated. It will be the PhD student's responsibility to pay attention to the expiry date and to take care of any saved content and e-mails that he/she does not wish to lose; as a result of the deactivation of the box, its content will be lost. Therefore, at the end of the 7-year period, it will be the PhD student's responsibility to save any content and e-mails that he/she does not wish to lose.

 

The first part of the domain will be identical to that issued at the time of enrolment for students:

E.g. m.rossi@/studenti.uniss.it will be equivalent to m.rossi@/phd.uniss.it

The same applies to addresses issued with numbering, which is necessary in cases of homonymy:

E.g. m.rossi131@/studenti.uniss.it will be equivalent to m.rossi131@/phd.uniss.it

In these cases an "alias" address may be issued for those who, from time to time, request it from the project's administrative managers.

 

The procedure for activating the phd.uniss.it mailbox is as follows:

- go to the page for the activation of the mailbox, and login with the Self Studenti credentials (Username: first part of the email studenti.uniss.it, password: the one chosen by the student after the first login);

- select the appropriate function to activate the phd.uniss.it e-mail account and click on the confirmation button;

- the PIN code to be used for the first access will be provided on the screen only and, subsequently, you will have to set your own password.

- If you do not remember your PIN code, you can reset it by repeating the same procedure.

- The mailbox will be accessible through the Google GMAIL service.

 

The email box can be linked, by the PhD student, to the above-mentioned institutional student email which is given to PhD students on their first enrolment or already in their possession if they graduated from our University (@studenti.uniss.it) by following the steps below.

To activate automatic forwarding:

  1. On your computer, open Gmail using the account you want to forward messages from (@studenti.uniss.it). You can only forward messages for a single Gmail address, and not an email group or alias.
  2. In the top right, click Settings and then See all settings. 
  3. Click the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.
  4. In the "Forwarding" section, click Add a forwarding address.
  5. Enter the email address you want to forward messages to.
  6. Click Next and then Proceed and then OK.
  7. A verification message will be sent to that address. Click the verification link in that message.
  8. Go back to the settings page for the Gmail account you want to forward messages from, and refresh your browser.
  9. Click the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.
  10. In the "Forwarding" section, select Forward a copy of incoming mail to.
  11. Choose what you want to happen with the Gmail copy of your emails. We recommend Keep Gmail's copy in the Inbox.
  12. At the bottom of the page, click Save Changes.

 

Please note that the @phd.uniss.it e-mail address will not be usable for access to Teams, Office 365 and all those services which need to be accredited with a University account and for which the use of @studenti.uniss.it will therefore remain valid.
