FAQs
How do I connect to my Dukes account?
Please follow these steps: How to Configure your Dukes Email on all JMU-Supported Devices
What is my Dukes email address?
Your Dukes email address is eID@dukes.jmu.edu.
How do I maintain my Dukes email password?
Dukes email uses your JMU eID password. To change your eID password, or if you forget your password, follow these steps. Dukes account holders without an active eID must maintain their password by changing it every 180 days (or the account will be deleted) by clicking "Can't access your account?" on the dukes.jmu.edu login page.
Am I able to forward email from my Dukes account to a non-JMU account (like Gmail)?
No. Forwarding your email to third-party email accounts is prohibited according to the JMU Electronic Messaging Policy 1209.
How long do graduates keep their Dukes account?
Accounts of graduates who do not re-enroll are deleted on May 1 or October 1 (whichever is sooner) following graduation. After an account is deleted, messages and data may be unrecoverable, so graduating students should make plans to migrate important items elsewhere.
I am both a staff/faculty member and a student (or recent graduate). Do I have two email accounts?
Yes. You have both an employee (jmu.edu) account and a Dukes (dukes.jmu.edu) account. Forwarding employee email to your Dukes account is prohibited according to the JMU Electronic Messaging Policy 1209.
