You will access your new email using your CUNY Login Account (firstname.lastname##@login.cuny.edu) via Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft 365 Apps.

👉 Use the same username and password you already use for CUNYfirst, Navigate, Brightspace, and others listed on the Login page which is accessed from Lehman homepage.

✅ There is no new username or password to remember. 

• You will have one mailbox, but it can have multiple email addresses associated with it.
  
  
• You will log in using your CUNY Login Account (firstname.lastname##@login.cuny.edu), which is also one of your email addresses. This single mailbox will also receive all messages sent to any of the student’s college-branded email addresses.
  
  
• Your Lehman College branded email address will be firstname.lastname##@stu-mail.lehman.cuny.edu. This is the address Lehman  will use to contact you and the one you should share with others.
  
  
• If you have a student email address from another CUNY college, that address will continue to work and will deliver messages to the same inbox as your Lehman student email.
  
  
• One place to check email

• Until further notice, messages sent to older student email addresses (firstname.lastname@lc.cuny.edu) will still reach students in the new mailbox (firstname.lastname##@stu-mail.lehman.cuny.edu). 

• If you have logged into your “firstname.lastname@lc.cuny.edu” email account within the past 9 months, your mailbox content will be automatically migrated to your new account. In sum, the content from students' old college-based email account (firstname.lastname@lc.cuny.edu) will be copied to the new CUNY email account (firstname.lastname##login.cuny.edu). Mailbox content for the Spring 2026 semester will be copied first for all students. We will then proceed with previous content. 

• Until further notice, your previous mailbox (firstname.lastname@lc.cuny.edu) is available to you and you should continue to use it until the mailbox is copied. 

The following information will be copied to the new MS 365 Mailbox Account: 

• Emails: All email content, including folder structure and attachments.
  
  
• Calendars: Events, attendees, and recurrence patterns. 
  
  
• Contacts: User contact information.
• Email Rules: Mail redirects, blocking rules, and other mailbox rules. 
  
  
• Auto-reply Settings: Out-of-office replies and other automatic response configurations. 
  
  
• Time Zones: Preserves the correct time zone settings for the mailbox. 

What is Not Copied (Limitations):

• Encrypted Emails: Cannot be detected and are migrated unreadable. 

• Folder Permissions: Permissions for folders are not preserved during the migration. 

• Reference Attachments: Links to documents on OneDrive (like OneDrive for Business) are not preserved.

• Scheduled Emails: Future-scheduled emails are copied as drafts, not with their scheduled send time.
