## Setting an Email Archive alias

Note: To complete the procedures in this document, you must be assigned a role having the necessary permissions. To determine your role, follow the directions in Participant roles. To view a list of permissions associated with a given role, see Permissions, roles, and tools. For a basic understanding of roles and permissions, see Permissions and Roles: Overview.

You can create an easy-to-remember alias address for your Email Archive by following these steps:

1. In the menubar of the relevant course site or project site, click `Email Archive`.
2. Click `Options`.
3. In the "Site Email Address" field, type the alias you want to use as the initial part of the email address for the archive (i.e., the part before the `@` symbol).
4. Click `Update Options`.
5. You will now see your aliased address as well as the autogenerated address on the main Email Archive screen, for example: Email sent to the following addresses will be archived and sent to participants: german112@oncourse.iu.edu 1105113863261-20909@oncourse.iu.edu

   In this example, `german112` was the alias entered in step 3.
