This page contacts support tips and basic troubleshooting information unique to the College at Brockport's implementation of Google Apps for Education
The following section details a series of basic troubleshooting situations to try when you are unable to locate mail in your Google Apps email account.
Google Apps accounts function a little differently that regular Gmail accounts. Google has a special system-wide filter to prevent duplicate messages from reaching your Inbox. Any email that you send to yourself at netid@brockport.edu from your Google Email account will not appear in your Inbox but instead is automatically archived under your “All Mail” label.
There are two workarounds for this particular issue:
1) Click the gear image in the upper right hand corner
2) Select “Settings”
3) Choose “Accounts and Imports”
4) Under “Send mail as:” click “Add another email address you own”
5) Enter your name and then your_netid@brockport.edu
6) Make sure “Treat as an alias” is checked and click “Next Step”
7) A message will appear asking to send a verification email to your account. Select
8) Exit out of this box and refresh your inbox. You should see an email from The College at Brockport. Open this and click on the verification link.
9) You will now receive emails that you send to yourself in your inbox
