Maybe.
- Please check to see if you have an Exchange mailbox first at http://help.asu.edu/Do_I_Have_an_Exchange_Mailbox. If you do have an Exchange mailbox, we strongly recommend that you have all your email delivered to the Exchange mailbox instead at http://help.asu.edu/Routing_all_Mail_to_Your_Exchange_Mailbox.
- If you don’t have an Exchange mailbox and you want to use Gmail for ASU, simply log in at http://www.asu.edu/emailsignup to complete the setup process.

Absolutely. Just log in at http://www.asu.edu/emailsignup to get started.
Does Google know my ASURITE password?
No. However, if you want to use features such as Google Talk, you’ll need to set your Google password separately. Visit https://weblogin.asu.edu/google-chpwd to do that.
I'm not sure where my email is getting delivered.
- Visit http://www.asu.edu/epoupdate. (See screenshot below)
- Take a look at the “Destination Address.”
- If the Destination Address is asuriteID@email.asu.edu, that means your mail is being delivered to your Gmail for ASU account (check it at https://email.asu.edu).
- If the Destination Address is asuriteID@mainex1.asu.edu or asuriteID@exchange.asu.edu, that means your mail is being delivered to your Exchange account (check it at https://exchange.asu.edu).
- If the Destination Address is a different address, like a Hotmail or Yahoo address, your email is going there instead. You’ll want to check that account for your mail.
