Set Up Google Apps Email in Mac Mail

Google Apps email accounts are special Gmail accounts for educational and corporate users of Google Apps. You can set up an Google Apps email account in the Apple Mail client included in Mac OS X and use it in the same way you can a normal Gmail account. Apple Mail can't automatically detect the settings your Google Apps email account requires in the same way it can detect Gmail account settings, so you'll have to provide additional information about Gmail's incoming and outgoing email servers.

Enable IMAP support in your Google Apps Gmail account by clicking the gear icon in the upper-right corner of the screen, clicking "Mail Settings," clicking the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" tab, clicking "Enable IMAP" and clicking "Save Changes."

Click the "Mail" menu in the Apple Mail application and click "Preferences."

Click the "Accounts" icon at the top of the preferences window.

Click the "+" icon at the bottom of the list of accounts.

Type your name into the "Full Name" box. People who receive emails from you will see this name on the emails.

Type your Google Apps email address into the email address box in the format "name@your_domain.com".

Type your Google Apps account password into the "Password" box.

Click the "Create" button.

Click the "Account Type" box on the Incoming Mail Server window that appears and click "IMAP."

Type "imap.gmail.com" into the "Incoming Mail Server" box.

Type your full email address into the "User Name" box and your password into the "Password" box and then click "Continue."

Type "smtp.gmail.com" into the "Outgoing Mail Server" box.

Check the "Use Authentication" checkbox.

Type your full email address and password into the "User Name" and "Password" boxes and click "Continue."

Click "Create" to save your account details.
