    Class email aliases are owned by the instructor(s) assigned to the class. To request a list of class email aliases for an instructor, you must enter the Cal Poly email address (username@calpoly.edu) of the instructor. All other email aliases, that are not automatically generated class email aliases, are owned by their associated Central UNIX account. For department email aliases, this is usually the department library account. For clubs and committees, this may also be an individual's Central UNIX account. The request will be emailed to this Central UNIX account.

    Check here if you are an instructor requesting a list of your own class email aliases.

    e.g.: acadaff or username@calpoly.edu
