ADCS Home > Email and Internet Accounts > Account Information for Terminating Staff and Faculty

When a staff or faculty person terminates employment at the University, the department enters a change of status into the Human Resources PeopleSoft database. Each evening the data from PeopleSoft is updated. When it is noted that a person has terminated employment, a warning letter is sent via e-mail giving 3 weeks to abandon the U of M mailbox. Other U of M services may also immediately deny access such as TechMart, U of M Library services, etc.

After 3 weeks, the mailboxes are removed. Directory entries and passwords are maintained until the end of the following calendar year. This allows you to set mail forwarding and to access next year's W-2 information. Directory entries are suppressed from public view.

Accounts are not removed for people whose employee status indicates:

  • Leave of Absence
  • Leave with pay
  • Retired
  • Suspended
  • Terminate with pay
  • Short work break
