If you own a departmental email account, you can change ownership from yourself to another person at UNI.

Instructions

  2. Under Password Central click on the link that says Change Departmental Email Account Ownership:

  3. Search for your CatID username or ID or the CatID or ID of someone you supervise and click on Search:

  4. You will see a list off accounts that can be transferred. Choose the account you want to change ownership for and click the Edit button on the left next to your name.

  5. Type in their ID number or username of the new owner and click Save. You may be prompted to click Save again if the person exists outside of your department.

    Warning

    CatID usernames with a special character cannot be used. You will have to specify an ID # instead if the username has a special character like a - or .

  6. Ownership is now transferred.

If an employee owning the account leaves UNI and the account needs to be transferred, the supervisor of that employee can check the "Inactive Current Account Owner(s)" box to find them. If the account or owner can't be located, contact the ITS Help Desk for help.
