This document is a step by step walk through on how to add an e-mail account to your existing domain name. In this document, we will outline how to sign-in to the administrator panel in Google Apps to manage all of your e-mail accounts.
How to Sign Into Google App's Admin Panel
At this time you should have received an e-mail/phone call from our support team at Twin Tiers, and they should have provided you with two things:
- An e-mail address to sign in with (usually something like admin@mydomainname.com)
- A password to sign into the admin console with. If my domain is www.mydomainname.com, the password should be something like myd0m41nn4m3
Once you have the username and password provided by our support team, all you do is visit this link:
http://admin.google.com
You will see this log in screen:
Now enter the username and password provided by support:
You should now be logged into the Google Apps administrator panel!
Adding a new user
If you're not already on the user's tab, click "Users". Next, you should see this screen:
This is the administrator control panel. From here, everything that you need to add, delete, and manage your e-mail accounts is available. To add a new e-mail account, click "Create New User"
This box should pop-up on your screen.
Make sure you choose "Add a user manually" and click "Continue"
Now it's time to enter the information for our user.
A new box pops up for us to enter a first/last name as well as an email address. Enter the new user's information and click "Set Password".
This box will now expand and look like this:
Enter a password for your new user and make sure that the "Require a change of password in the next sign in" box is checked. Click "Create new user" and we're all done!
You're new user should now be visible in the control panel, and is ready to log into G-mail at mail.google.com
