Nice article, very much simplified the process!
If I had seen this article earlier, it would have saved me $25.
We couldnt get the setup for Google Apps right then we had got in touch with a company called searce apps..i think their site is http://www.searceapps.com they did it for us. They charged us but the charges were very nominal so that was ok. besides services were good and prompt.
i recommend your article to my friends, its really very helpful to new users!

Thanks…:-)

I have had my set up like this for awhile but the outgoing email address for people o reply to is wrong.
my email address is ryan@mydomain.com
and the incoming and outgoing works but people see my email address as ryan@gmail.com
Anyone else run into this? What’s the fix?
Thanks,
Ryan
Hi,
I did everything what you mentioned above but everytime it says “Network Unavailable”
I have enabled IMAP from the settings tab as well but still it doesnt work.
What could be the possible reasons ?
P.S – Trying to configure on my new Samsung Champ phone.
Thanks for the detailed description. It seems like it is straightforward, but my phone (samsung fascinate) never progresses beyond “checking incoming server settings”.
I am using my email address as the username (the email address that I use to log into google)and google password. then imap.gmail.com, port 993 security: ssl
I have also checked to make sure IMAP is enabled in my google apps mail account.
Any suggestions for what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks!
Very good & clearly defined steps. Thanks allot for your efforts.
Is there a way to configure a signature?
Thank you!! Have been trying to figure out since last 5 days.
You are awesome. Thank you so much… Verizon had me do an unneeded factory reset and I was bummed after I lost all my ‘hard work’ setting up things like this.
Thanks for taking the time to a write a great tutorial.
Good Karma coming your way!
Sweet blog! I found it while surfing around on Yahoo News.
Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo
News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Cheers
