How to login and redirect to gmail (google apps educational) from external website?
May 21, 2009 at 5:52 pm

We just got our gmail for our org @theserviceboard.org working and I'd like to put a login box on our webpage so users can log directly into their gmail from our external homepage. When they hit login on our page it'd redirect them to the gmail site with there login credentials.

I am not looking for any further integration like Google single sign-on.

When I login in I go to https://mail.google.com/a/theserviceboard.org/#

What would the format of this http request be?

Thanks!
Franklin

Trnaferring Domain Name
May 21, 2009 at 1:57 pm

Hi,

Currently Network Solution is hosting my web site (i.e., domain = name1.org).  I developed a Google web site (domain = name2.org), with an alias (domain name = name1.org). 

Need to transfer hosting from Network Solutions to Google.  Successfully verified my domain name, used a unique string to create a new CNAME record for the name1.org domain at Network Solutions
(i.e., Advanced DNS Manager | Manage Advanced DNS Records >>
| Add/Edit Host Aliases (CNAME Records) | Add/Edit >>
| Alias (box) = unique string | Other Host (box) = google.com.). 

I also made the required changes to Mail Exchange (MX) records, at Network Solutions to point to the Google servers (therefore,  Google should be able to host the web site's (i.e., name1.org) email.

After approximately 48 hours Network Solutions is now pointing to a web page that note … This "Under Construction" page is an automatically generated placeholder Web page for a domain that is not yet attached to an active Web site.   They said I now have to get from Google the new information for the Alias (box) to replace the unique string and maybe the Other Host (box) also. 

The problem now is I can't find any Google or third party instructions telling me where to find the needed info.  Can anyone provide some assistance?

Google and Educational Google Apps Don't Communicate?
May 21, 2009 at 11:59 am

I manage my life via Google, particularly gmail and the calendar features. The university for which I work recently adopted Google Apps for our students, providing all of them Gmail--based accounts and access to calendars and whatnot.

What I have done is set up a calendar on my personal Google account for each of my classes indicating due dates for assignments. What I would ideally like to see is for students to be able to add my personal calendar to their Google Apps calendars provided by the university. This apparently cannot be done. I just attempted this myself and find that I cannot add a personal calendar to my institution calendar. My personal calendar for the course is public and shared so it should not be related to an accessibility issue.

Can anyone illuminate what's happening with this?

My Domain was expired on 15-05!
May 21, 2009 at 10:39 am

Hi Sir,

My Domain name http://www.futurewebstore.com/ on which I run Google Apps. to manage emails, etc. was expired on 15-05. I forgot (by-mistakely) to renew it and so i didn't received any email to my Inbox. Today, i noticed that on usual days i received 5-7 emails but since 15-05, i haven't received any emails. And hence, i tried to do a test and so I sent an email from my Expired Domain Email Account to one of my gmail accounts, and I received the email in Gmail InBox. But, when i wrote back from Gmail Inbox to Expired Domain, i didn't received the email to my Expired Domain Inbox.

It clearly means that I haven't received many emails in last 6 days, so, my question to you is,
Is it possible to retrieve those emails? If yes, how?

If No? Would the message sender got the email bounced back? Were they aware that i am not receiving there messages?

It would really be great if somebody at Google Apps answer me! Thanks for your time and have great day :)
Note: I renewed the domain just now!

Custom Group Permissions
May 21, 2009 at 10:18 am

Custom group permissions don't seem to be working as expected.

I'd like to set a group so that Owners and Domain Users are the only people able to send email to the group.

When I choose Custom Permissions and then try to select Owners and Domain Users the Members checkbox is also automatically checked - When I uncheck the Members checkbox then the Domain Users checkbox is automatically unchecked also.

Is there a different way to use the Custom settings?

Dear Admin,
I was using google apps for the emails on www.brootsmedia.com domain account. I am unable to access those emails using www.google.com/a/brootsmedia.com.
Recently I changed my name servers to some different hosting provider. This is what caused this problem.
Kindly let me know how can I retrieve my old emails back.
It is really urgent as we have very important data on various IDs of brootsmedia.com.
Regards,
Digvesh

NEWBIE: Google Apps Premier
May 21, 2009 at 12:46 am

Hi

I just need a few pointers to get started...

1. From what I understand, GAP (Google Apps Premier) provides push services for email, contacts amd calendar.  Is that correct?


2.  If I switch over to GAP from my current exchange server - how to I (upload or migrate or copy) all my contacts. calendar items and emails per user account? (I only have one user account)

     - I saw the Google Apps Email Uploader utility but is their a utility to upload my MSEXCHANGE contacts and calendar to my
account?


3.  Since my premier account comes with Positini - where should my MX records point to??  Google or Postini?


.
Thanks in advance
