I am not even going to pretend like I know what you all did over at MCC. I’m a bit confused myself. All I know is I have Gmail and my address isn’t what it’s supposed to be yet, but I have Gmail, and it works.

OK, now I am confused! At MCC I thought our MCC email already migrated over, but not MEMO…am I backwards?

Oops! Only saw the first sentence of your comment. I still have a separate Gmail for my students; however, I’m considering merging them back into one now that we have Gmail for our work address. What I do is create filters and labels. Students will be using the @maricopa.edu (if you train them), so you can make a filter for all @maricopa.edu emails to go into a label (folder). You can even color code it red or something. I have all my students fill out a form in the beginning and ask for both personal and school emails. I then export that data into a CVS file and import it back into my Gmail making a contact group for each class. Each class gets its on color and label. I can show you how to do this.

Yes, you will get your GCC Gmail on August 6th. If you need any help migrating, let me know.

So this is how you migrated your individual gmail over to GC mail Gmail? (thank God memo is almost gone!!) This sounds like a good idea, but how will you keep student mail separate from GC mail? (Is there a way to do this?) I’ve been using Gmail for years too, but I don’t want to get bogged down having to pick through my email trying to keep to stuff separate. Thanks for any tips/advice.
