Setting up your ATN email in the Gmail app

Our emails are set up as IMAP, not pop, and are not supported in Gmail on Iphone. It will work on android devices.

Gmail is preinstalled on most Android devices, however if you need to download it, you can click here to open the app on the Play Store and download + install the app.

Step 1: Open Gmail. On most Android devices, you can swipe up from the bottom of your screen to see the app drawer. Alternatively, your device may have a dedicated app drawer icon on the home screen. Or, Gmail may already be on your home screen.

Step 2: Click add an account and from the list of available account options, choose Other.

Step 3: Enter the full email address for the account you are adding as youraddress@awakenthenorth.org

Then, tap Manual Setup. 

Step 4: Select IMAP from the list of options. 

Step 5: Enter the password for the account you are adding. Then, tap Next.

Step 6: On the next screen, ensure your Username and Password are filled in correctly.

In the Server section, enter your server information as mail.awakenthenorth.org

Then, tap Next.

Step 7: On the next screen, ensure the Require signin toggle is slid to the right. Also, check that your Username and Password are filled in correctly.

In the SMTP Server field, ensure the SMTP Server is set to mail.awakenthenorth.org

Then, tap Next

Step 8: You’ll briefly see a screen saying Verifying Account Information and then, if the information you entered was correct you will move forward to the next screen. 

Feel free to change any of these settings, but leave Sync email for this account checked if you wish to be able to send/receive email on this device.

Tap Next when ready.

Step 9: On this screen, you can give the account a name, which is super useful if you have multiple email accounts setup in the Gmail App.

Under Your Name, ensure the name you want others to see when you send email on this device using the Gmail App is set appropriately.

Tap Next when ready.

Step 10: That’s it! Not so bad right? If you want to add another email account, you can tap Add another email address or you can tap Take me to Gmail to finish.
