[DUG] Google Apps for my domain

[Conor Boyd]

I'd just second what everybody else has said.  I've done what you want
to do for about 20 domains for myself and family/friends now, and it
just works flawlessly.  Mail, calendars, Google Docs, etc all work, and
all work between browser, Android, iPad, etc.

 

Got my domains mostly registered here in NZ, hosted on Dreamhost, and
with Google Apps for all the mail, calendar and docs stuff behind the
scenes.

 

Cheers,

 

Conor

Thanks everyone,

 

I've been using gmail and then google apps since about 2007 and suffer
loudly with anything else.

 

This is the first time however when I need to keep the domain on another
host.

 

Thanks again.

You should be fine, I recently setup LearnDelphi.tv with Gmail.
Basically you just need to alter your MX records.  If you need less than
10 users you can use the free version, for which you get less storage -
but you certainly get more than you pay for ;-)

Hi Everyone, 

 

Not sure where to turn here but perhaps one of you has done this.

 

I've got a new domain name and have signed up for hosting aon a hosting
site with exactly what I want - except for the clunky email client.

 

I want to use Google Apps for the webmail and the domain hosting site
for everything else. I know that this can be done but not sure
how\where.

 

http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/group/index.html 

 

I'm scared when I start this that Google Apps will take my domain and
move it to their google apps, leaving all my databases and structures
etc on the hosting site without access.

 

Will Google Apps take my domain host? i.e. if I type in www.mydomain.com
will it now point to google app's site? or will it leave the domain on
the hosting site?

 

Any other suggestions? I hate (really hate) being forced to have a
browser and typing mail.mydomain.com to load their clunky webmail.
