Saint Mary's College will be moving to Google Apps for Education in the Spring 2013 semester.

We are now discouraging people from setting up their personal Gmail accounts to retrieve their Saint Mary's e-mail messages. Please be patient until your Saint Mary's Google Apps for Education account has been set up - you will then be able to use Google Apps for your Saint Mary's messages, calendars, contacts, and other collaboration tools.

If you are currently using your personal Gmail account to access your Saint Mary's e-mail, you may wish to disable that feature now.

Only messages, contacts, calendars, and signatures in Zimbra will be migrated to your new Saint Mary's Google Apps for Education account. Items saved in personal Gmail, iCloud, Yahoo, Hotmail, and other e-mail accounts will not be migrated to your new Saint Mary's Google Apps for Education account. By disconnecting your Saint Mary's account from your personal Gmail account now, you will begin to accumulate messages in Zimbra that will then automatically be transferred to your new Saint Mary's Google Apps for Education account.

Any forwarding of your Saint Mary's e-mail to your personal Gmail account will break when your Zimbra account is migrated to Saint Mary's Google Apps for Education account.

To stop your personal Gmail account from retrieving your Saint Mary's e-mail messages:

1. Visit http://www.gmail.com and log into your personal Gmail account.
2. Click on Settings (the icon looks like a gear) in the upper right corner of the Gmail page.
3. Select Settings.
4. Click on the Accounts and Import tab.
5. In the Check mail from other accounts (using POP3): section, find your Saint Mary's e-mail address (ending in saintmarys.edu).
6. Click delete. (This will only delete your connection to your Saint Mary's account from Zimbra. This will NOT delete messages sent to your Saint Mary's account that have been retrieved by your personal Gmail account.)
7. Click OK.
8. In the Send mail as: section, find your Saint Mary's e-mail address.
9. Click delete. This will remove your ability to send messages from your Saint Mary's e-mail address from your personal Gmail account.
10. Click OK.
11. Log out of your personal Gmail account.

To remove your Saint Mary's e-mail account as an associated email address with your personal Gmail account:

Not all users may have their Saint Mary's e-mail address listed as an associated email address with their personal Gmail account. Those who do may experience problems logging into their Saint Mary's Google Apps for Education account because of an address conflict.

1. Visit http://www.gmail.com and log into your personal Gmail account.
2. In the upper right corner of the page, click on the item the farthest to the right - it may be a profile picture or your e-mail address.
3. In the pop-up window that appears, click on the Account link.
4. In the Email section, find your Saint Mary's e-mail address (ending in saintmarys.edu).
5. Next to Alternate email addresses, next to your Saint Mary's e-mail address, click Edit. (You may continue to use your Saint Mary's e-mail address as a recovery address.)
6. In the Change your associated email addresses section, click on the X to the left of your Saint Mary's e-mail address.
7. Click Save.
8. Log out of your personal Gmail account.
