I korthet är det ganska Gmail. Eller snarare, det är Gmail, förutom att i stället för 1address @ gmail, får du använda en-gäng-of-adresser @ din-domän.
Till att börja med, jag är billig och det är gratis. (Jo, Google Apps Standard gratis.) Sedan finns det flera gig lagring, den välbekanta Gmail-gränssnittet, medföljande kalender och andra G-varor. Men vad jag verkligen gillar är denna del: --
Låt oss titta på dessa punkter i lite mer detalj, 'cos they're worth it.
Inrätta GA tar 10 minuter, eller kanske 25 första gången, med denna guide och länkar. Och det är förbaskat lätt att göra. Säkert, lättare än konfigurerar en e-postserver som Courier eller Dovecot.
Detta är inte Hotmail, det är Google Apps. Inget av detta john1973@prettyHorrible.com. Använd din domän. I själva verket använder anything-you-like@yourdomain.com, eftersom det är en catch-all anläggningen också.
Personligen är jag ingen stor webmail fan. Jag gillar min post, kinda like my pub - lokal. Med GA, förutom fjärråtkomst, vi kan POP och IMAP.
För webmasters, att det viktigaste skälet använda en extern e-mod är kanske denna: att filtrera varenda bit av VPS resurs för dina webbplatser och bloggar.
Och här är den stora bonus. Har du någonsin inrätta SpamAssassin? Usch! Betcha vill inte behöva gå igenom allt det igen. Med GA, nära som fan, är spam ett icke-konfigurerbar icke-story, full-stop. Gör ingenting, vara spam-fri, och spenderar mer tid på stranden. För många är detta det # 1 anledning att använda GA och inte bry sig om din egen e-postserver. Förutom att det är skräppost en resurs galt.
Jag förmodar att det finns andra skäl. Lemme know.
Finns anonymitet oro över Googles sökord forskning för annonser och, hey, vem vet vilka andra storebror taktik. Om du har något att dölja, är GA inte för dig.
Är något av en konspiration buff själv, skulle jag vara mycket intresserad av att höra dina tankar. Om inte din e-postadress innehåller bokstäverna "CIA", please chip in
Apropå konspiration är GA freebie ganska väl dold, huh ![]()
Google Google Apps och du kommer att tas till biz versionen, Google Apps Premier, som brukade ha en oklar koppling till den kostnadsfria tjänsten Google Apps Standard Edition. Detta samband har sedan mystiskt försvunnit. Google något liknande gratis Google Apps och inga kostnader paketet inte ens på sidan resultat, och min Googles sida är konfigurerad för att de 100 resultaten.
Hej, jag antar att det bara's Got a pap pagerank. Hmmn, kan du domaren.
Men Oroa dig inte, sällskapsdjur ..
Gå hit för att registrera dig för gratis Standard Edition. Om du vill väga upp företagskonto, det är hit, och kostar $ 50 pa.
För de flesta av oss, även små till medelstora företag, är freebie tjänst utmärkt tillräcklig. Och, kan jag tillägga, en stor skål till den Allsmäktige G för en stor ging-gang googly gåva. Cool sarkasm åt sidan, kort, jag uppskattar det.
Dunno. Jag är frilans och har aldrig satt upp Premiär för en klient. Om du anställer några tiotal personer, njuta Premiere och omsorg så att jag vet, jag ska lägga till några detaljer. Jag läste någonstans att de lägger till några API, så det är nice.

Riktad till din GA instrumentpanelen bredvid en varningsskylt du se ett meddelande ..
"Om du vill aktivera Google Apps-tjänster måste du verifiera att du äger din domän - somedomain.com."
.. och intill detta, med en länk Verifiera äganderätt till domän, så klicka igenom det.
Om kontrollen sidan, under Välj verifieringsmetod i rullgardinsmenyn, du har 2 alternativ till Proove du äger din domän, antingen genom att skapa en CNAME-post, annars genom att lägga upp en HTML-sida för Google att kontrollera.
Att hålla det enkelt: --
Det är enklare. Såvida inte antingen du har ett domännamn, men ingen hemsida, annars kan du inte få tillgång till webbplatsen backend, i båda fallen, hoppa till CNAME alternativet att tillämpa dessa inställningar till din domänregistreringsföretaget konto.
Klicka på HTML-alternativet och Google skapar en kod.
Nu, spricka ut en vanlig html-sida eller mall, hej, bara använda den här: --
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <!-- ADD GOOGLE APPS CODE HERE --> </body> </html>
...and in the 'body' section, as I've pinpointed above, add Google's code.
Save that file as googlehostedservice.html and upload to your site root.
If you want to get all complicato, you can instead opt to ..
This is fairly easy, tho' it can require a little webhost-specific research 'cos the process and jargon varies from host to host. Google spell it out for some hosts, so I suggest you take a look at this .
For a general idea, watch this video which I've pinched from Google.
Watch the, er, guvideo for a better idea of how to do this.
Check out the_guv's YouTube channel at http://youtube.com/guvnrDOTcom
...or if you can't be bothered with that, or even if you can, here's the detail...
Whether you chose to claim domain name ownership using the html page or a CNAME record, don't forget to tab back to the Google Apps page and click on Verify , under the drop-down.
And wait.
Access your new GA account by heading to https://www.google.com/a/yourdomain.tld , swapping yourdomain.tld for your domain.
If the domain hasn't been verified, probably because the process needs more time, you'll see a notification. Try again later.
When it has been verified:-
Click on Inbox (in the top menu, so not the Email link) to check your mail (or personalised Gmail), and maybe send some test mails.
And customise whatever other GA settings to suit.
Give or take, blessed if I know! But these splendid folks do, so thank you very much:-
| POP | IMAP |
|---|---|
| Post Office Protocol | Internet Messaging Access Protocol |
| Best if you use only one computer to check email | Best if you use many different computers to check your email |
| Downloads your email to the particular computer you are checking it on | Your mail is always on the server |
| Allows you to keep a large backlog of email messages only limited by the size of your computer. | You are limited by your mailbox size quota for how many messages you keep, although you can archive old messages and save them onto your computer manually. |
| Does not have a web interface (Some webmail companies, such as Yahoo, will let you check POP mail) | Has a web interface. If you are using NCF Webmail, you are using IMAP. |
| New messages are downloaded in their entirety, you have to wait for the message to download. | New message headers are downloaded so you see all your mail faster, the message you want to read is not downloaded to your computer until you click on it. |
With Google Apps, as with Gmail, POP is already activated. So if you don't want IMAP, just the POP protocol, head here for instructions relevant to your specific mail client.
Hey, I'm not kopping out on the instructions. Google's instructions cover a bunch of email clients, and they have some pretty pics too.
Do this lot:-
Ditto above in the POP section. Google's instructions cover a wide range of email clients, and I can't improve on them, plus they've got pretty pics.
So that's the email sorted. And for webmaestros there's no resource footprint on the VPS.

Hi Guv,
I have not worked out this chapter but I have few questions to ask if you may please answer:
1. There is no mention of how to setup MX records for google in DNS manager. I am wondering why?
2. IN DNS manger there is already an entry mail.domainname.com 10. Do I have to delete it before adding the google server?
3. For reverse DNS we had set mail.domainname.com. Would that have any effect if we change MX records?
I am sure after going through these questions you would have understood how much of a newbie I am
It would be really great if you could add something regarding MX setup in DNS manger for Google Apps.
Thanks

Hey Ashesh,
Sorry for delay .. was cooking a mobile ROM, or rather heating one up in the microwave, and how fiddly was that
"There is no mention of how to setup MX records for google in DNS manager. I am wondering why?"
.. 'cos this is a newbie guide, that complicates the issue, varies from VPS provider to VPS provider and just really isn't necessary. This method is simpler, and faster to propagate.
"IN DNS manger there is already an entry mail.domainname.com 10. Do I have to delete it before adding the google server?"
.. don't touch it. Did I say to touch it?
"3. For reverse DNS we had set mail.domainname.com. Would that have any effect if we change MX records?"
.. No. If you wanna go get complicato and change MX records, or if you don't, your RDNS won't be affected.
"I am sure after going through these questions you would have understood how much of a newbie I am
"
.. No. You're right to question these things, I reckon. While this guide is intended as a copy and paste and you need know nothing, it's obviously better if you have some idea of what's what and why.
"It would be really great if you could add something regarding MX setup in DNS manger for Google Apps."
.. refer above. Really truly scrumptious, it's not necessary here, and would lead to more problems than it's worth. If it made any difference to security or performance, I'd add it.
Tx for all your comments Anesh, Bible-wide. I'm sure they'll answer some q's for a few folks. Appreciated, Sir.

Please tell me how to add my website link with google app and my requirement is to log in my mail directly over website.
Thanks in advance.

@sagar .. hi to you. but sorry, I'm not sure what you're asking, exactly.
"add my website link with google app" - guide covers that, no? (maybe it's covered from one of the GA links in the post.)
"requirement to log in my mail directly over website" - can you flesh that out please, and I'll try to help.

Hi Guv,
I like your series. Just want to comment here that Google's automatic spam settings are a big negative in my opinion. I find that it has far too many false positives making the service too unreliable. It would be great if you could simply turn it off but Google doesn't allow that.
Cheers
Mart
the_guv September 23rd, 2009 at 10:24 am
@Mart .. thank you, Sir. Jolly kind.
Tell me, how do you know about the false positives?! Pls tell me more.

Hi Guvnr, first off, your guide is great! It covers so many area's, and really appreciate the depth you go in solving usual bits that can go wrong.
I'm giving the Google Apps a try here, and am currently at the point of setting the MX records up. Although every vps provider have there own way of setting things up, one option not listed is a webmin route, which means you install bind on your server, and go by that.
When using a stock webmin install, they can edit or copy paste settings into their domain file. I'm trying to set up brettjames.au.com , and that would be in "/etc/bind/brettjames.au.com.hosts"
Currently though I'm having trouble putting in the settings, here is how my mx records are setup:
http://pastie.org/636278
Could you suggest a change in order to have it appear in a lookup?
As a sidenote, Google recommends using dnsstuff, because it updates live, instead of a cached response. Example:
http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/legacy/?ToolFormName=googlemx&domain=brettjames.au.com&r=235660
That would main any changes would be noticed straight away, avoiding you having to change, wait, then change again if needed..
the_guv October 6th, 2009 at 6:18 am
@Brett .. you are a lovely man.
sorry for delay .. damn, been rebuilding both my boxes, well out of the loop. bloody motherboard cracked on one, the other, well, i just wanted the hassle.
you sorted? looked at yer pastie. thing is, it varies from web host to host .. you need to ask them or the forum there. personally, i don't bother going that route anymore, which probably is terribly unprofessional, but it's just so easy to scp an authentication page, way quicker than logging into and navigating my manager. my manager gets lonely, i think. that's got to be a good sign
webmin, you say .. webmin CP with Nginx - last i heard there was veeeeeeeeeery sluggish development going on with any nginx-mod. i like webmin tho, nice and light, as cp's go. if or when (i'd guess when) that is available, or more reluctantly any other cp, i'll for sure be adding a bunch of tuts about installing and using it.

Hi Guv,
I got Google Apps working, including mail, verified, etc. But the address to go to read my mail from Google Apps is "http://mail.google.com/a/mydomain.com". Google said that to change it to "http://mail.mydomain.com/" I'd have to modify the CNAME records for "mail" and a verification string. I already have a mail A/AAAA record - would that affect things up? I'd also like to add that I actually haven't installed Postfix yet. And I haven't changed my reverse DNS. I want Google Apps to manage my e-mail from "http://mail.mydomain.com/" - how can I do that and what should I do next?
Thanks,
Kevin

Hey! Remembered I had a comment on it to go from. For the original note I left, it turned out to be a waiting game - just had to wait it out. I'm on a vps, so I didn't need a working.
I've differed slightly in some of my settings for the postfix section of the guide on here (that's part 10). The webserver will be serving multiple domainnames, so I thought that it wouldn't be as simple as setting the hostname to resolve to a singular name.
Besides that though, I havn't been able to get the mail() function to work (receiving an email sent via it internally or externally). Worse is that I'll get no errors and just a success in the console when trying it as well.
I first found out that the sending of email via the php for me wasn't working when a phpbb3 board never sent out emails - doh!
