Alumni e-mail Migration

1. First change your western.edu google password https://madjackmail.western.edu/googlepassreset/prompt.aspx.  This password will only be used for forwarding your e-mail.  This will not affect the password associated with your student ID.
2. Then log into your western.edu google apps account http://western.edu/madjackmail, go to Settings and then to the IMAP/POP tab and enable POP
3. Then log into your westernalum.org at http://mail.westernalum.org google account and go to Settings and Accounts and select:  Add a POP3 mail account you own.
   
4. Add your Western e-mail address firstname.lastname@western.edu.
   Make sure the username has @western.edu - firstname.lastname@western.edu.
   Use the POP password you just set (see Example below).
5. The pop server is pop.gmail.com and the port is 995.
6. You must check: Always use a secure connection (SSL) when retrieving mail.
7.  Click Add Account
8. If all works as expected, the account will be added and your mail will move from your @western account.
   BE PATIENT!  It takes a while (longer than you would think) for the mail to move accross.
