Creating Your MX Records & CNAME Records for Google Apps: (mt) Media Temple

If you simply want to setup google apps for anything other then mail, then you must simply create the CNAME records for those services. Such as docs.yourdomain.com for Google docs. See step 6 in the guide above as an example. Remember you can use any subdomain or domain you wish, but you will need to login to your Google Apps account and tell them what subdomain or domain you will be using for each service.

Hey thanks for the suggestions, and I have added a note to make it clear the "l" is in fact a lower case letter L. As for information on how to move email over, its on my list to write a detailed guide, however here is the quick version:

The best way to move emails between servers is with IMAP. This should be easy to do with any of the popular email applications.

Step 1) Make sure both server/accounts have IMAP capabilities. Does it need to be enabled? (mt) servers by default support IMAP with no server configuration necessary. For Google Apps, it may need to be enabled.

Step 2) Select your Mail Application of choice: Apple Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird (http://mozilla.com) , Etc

Step 3) Create a IMAP connection to the first server/account, this will create a folder structure matching the first server.

Step 4) Create a IMAP connection to the second server/account, this will create a folder structure matching the second server. (MUST be done within the same email application)

Step 5) Now you can drag and move your emails from one account to the other.

* Drag and drop all of your emails from the old server inbox to the inbox on the new server.
* Drag and drop all your old “Sent mail” into the “Sent Mail” folder in your new server IMAP account.
* Wait patiently - with hundreds of emails it may take a while.

That should be it, your done.
