3. Please note that past emails cannot be migrated to your new account - we encourage you to set up forwarding “Students - How to Forward Emails to New Google Account” during the transition period, and use Students - How to use Google Takeout to Export Data to archive emails you’d like to keep.

Between August 25 and September 30, 2016, there will be a grace period during which both your @mail.saintpeters.edu�����Ի� @saintpeters.edu accounts are available and accessible - it is highly recommended that, during that time, you follow the steps for migrating content over, start saving content to your @saintpeters.edu Google drive (and stop using the @mail.saintpeters.edu one) and set up forwarding.  Forwarding should link to Students - How to Forward Emails to New Google Account.
