Gmail users may check your mail four ways.

On the web. You can log in to at

http://mail.Your_Domain_Name.com

If you get an error, you can also log in at

http://mail.google.com/a/Your_Domain_Name.com

By forwarding your email to another account. Go to Settings at the top right, click on Forwarding and POP/IMAP, and change the Forwarding options.

Directly through a standard email program such as Thunderbird, Eudora or Outlook. You can set up your email program using these instructions. It is important to follow the instructions exactly, as Gmail uses some non-standard settings that you will need to change. (It's not difficult! Just make sure you don't miss any steps.)

If you are moving from another system, we suggest that you do not edit the current settings in your email program. Rather, you should create a new account using the above instructions, and check them both for now. In a few days, when mail stops flowing to your existing box, you can disable the old settings.

Through your Blackberry, Treo or other PDA. See Knowledge Base Article 183 for instructions.

In addition to your email, you may also use the other features of your start page, which include a calendar and a system for editing documents and spreadsheets online.
