  • Test the Rule: Send a scan from a physical campus PaperCut machine to MEID@maricopa.edu.
  • Confirm Receipt: Verify that the scanned document automatically lands in your MEID@domail.maricopa.edu inbox.
  • Check Sent Folder: Verify in your MEID@maricopa.edu account that an automated forward message entry was created in your Sent folder.

Troubleshooting / Notes

  • Missing Verification Email: Check the Spam or Junk folder of your MEID@domail.maricopa.edu account if the authorization email does not appear within 5 minutes.
  • Filter Not Triggering: Ensure the From address is entered exactly as , scans@papercut.com without trailing spaces or typos.
Warning: You must click the confirmation link sent to MEID@domail.maricopa.edu during Step 1. The forwarding rule created in Step 2 will fail silently until the target address is verified.
