To add a new account to Gmail

If at any time you don't have the information necessary to complete a step, contact your system administrator or SupraNet for help.

  1. Log into your Gmail account.
  2. On the right hand side of your screen, click the gear icon. Select the Settings option.
  3. Near the top of the screen there should be a tab for 'Accounts'. Navigate to this tab.


To configure Gmail to send outgoing mail:

  1. Go to the "Send mail as" section and click "Add another email address you own".
  2. Enter your full name and email address. Leave the "Treat as an alias" button checked.
  3. Enter the SMTP server (contact SupraNet for this information)
  4. Leave the port as 587
  5. Enter your full email address as the Username
  6. Enter your email address password
  7. Leave the option for Secured connection using TLS button checked.
  8. Click "Add Account"
  9. This will send an email with a confirmation code to your current email address. When you receive the email, click on the link to confirm the address.


To configure Gmail to receive incoming mail

  1. Go to the "Check mail from other accounts" section.
  2. Click Add a POP3 mail account you own.
  3. Enter your full email address and click "Next Step"
  4. Enter your full email address as the username
  5. Enter your email address password
  6. Enter the hostname (contact SupraNet for this information)
  7. Leave the port defined as 110
  8. Check the box for "Leave a copy of the retrieved message on the server"
  9. Do not check box for "Always use a secure connection (SSL) when retrieving mail.
  10. Click "Add Account". The mail should begin to sync from the email server to the Gmail mail client.


That's it! If you have any questions, or the configuration didn't go quite as planned, contact your network administrator or SupraNet for help.
