North by Northwest School Technology Group

Technology for 21st Century Learners in Northwest Minnesota

We have a staff member that has been using a google.com email account for some time and does not want to give it up.

Our domain uses  username@ncw.k12.mn.us and she has a username@gmail.com.  Any way of adding that into our Group list???

Thanks

Ron

If you figure this out please let me know.  I'm having the same issue.

Does the staff member also have a school account, or is her personal gmail account also used for the school?
No school account.  For instance, school board members that have a personal or work account they want to use.

Just trying to clarify the terminology and what you want to do:

Are you looking to add this account to your DOMAIN or to a GROUP in your DOMAIN?

 

If you want to add user@gmail.com to your domain that is not possible as far as I know

 

If you are looking for user@gmail.com to be able to still receive user@gmail.com mail and user@ncw.k12... that can be done via forwarding/routing emails to either account

 

If you want to add the user@gmail.com to a GROUP that also can be done...sharing documents outside of your domain is an issue (might open things up to more people than you'd like)

 

I would suggest that you create USER@NCW.K12.MN.US in your Domain and then forward/route email to USER@GAIL.COM (if you want to be nice to the staff member)

or

Reverse it to drive them to your domain...have them forward/route the email USER@GMAIL.COM to the NCW account...that way they are part of the team.

 

Same could be done for School Board...etc
