How do I forward mail from one account to another?

To setup mail forwarding on SEAS, you can use the account management web pages at:

https://www.seas.upenn.edu/accounts/configure-account.html

Note: You should test the forward after creating or altering it by sending yourself a message or having a friend send you one. Don't assume that it will work without testing it - there may be typographical errors or other problems.

Note: Please don't use a mail filter if all you want to do is forward all of your mail to another account; it can cause a mail loop. Setting up a forward as described here is simpler and less likely to have problems.
