This was mentioned in today’s BTM Academic orientation. Read below for the steps to: 1) forward RMail to GMail; 2) reply to emails from GMail using your @ryerson.ca account.
1) Forward emails to Gmail (or any other email)
- Log into RMail
- Options => Settings
- Under “Mail Forwarding”, tick Enable forwarding
- In the textarea underneath, enter your email address(es) you want your RMail to be forwarded to
- Click on Save Changes
- (Note: I highly recommend leaving Don’t leave copy on server unticked)
2a) Gmail – Reply to emails as ____@ryerson.ca
- Log into Gmail
- Settings => Accounts => Add another email address you own
- In pop-up window, enter your RMail email address
- Click Next Step
- Log into RMail, confirm your request by clicking on the link in the “Gmail Confirmation – Send Mail as ____@ryerson.ca” email sent by “GMail Team”
2b) Gmail – Automatically reply to an email from your Ryerson email address if sent to ____@ryerson.ca
- Settings => Accounts
- Underneath “When receiving a message”, ensure “Reply from the same address the message was sent to” is ticked
