Happy First Friday of the New Year!
In just 3 more days, Gmail will be live for all our WUSD staff. Additional incremental migrations of data will begin starting later today and will continue through the weekend. You will notice current data after 12/10/18 begin to populate your inbox in preparation for our final cutover to Gmail on Monday, January 7. Please note that your district email address will not change. The only change is that starting Monday, you will send and receive your email via the Gmail interface at mail.google.com rather than launching Outlook.
Today's Tip focuses on how trash is treated differently within Gmail vs. Outlook.
Today's Tip focuses on how trash is treated differently within Gmail vs. Outlook.
Gmail will automagically empty your trash on a rolling 30-day basis, unlike Outlook which required the user to manually empty the trash. As a result, e know some of our users utilized their Outlook Trash as file storage. Any emails in your Outlook trash migrated over to Gmail trash and will be deleted after 30 days. If there are any emails in your Gmail trash that you wish to retain, you will want to remove them from the trash. Here's how. These steps are alternatively available as a Video Tutorial on the WUSD Tech YouTube Channel Gmail Migration Playlist.
- Visit mail.google.com
- Find your Trash in your list of folders. You may have to scroll down and choose more to reveal your trash folder.
- If there are emails you wish to retain and not be deleted, select those emails and you can move them back to your inbox.
Moving forward, Gmail has the option to archive email. This removes the email from your inbox but does not delete it. Any archived mail can be found under the All Mail Filter/Folder or via search. To learn more about archived mail, visit the GSuite Learning Center.
