How to get free Google Apps Mail

Hello Google Apps admin,

We're excited to help you offer powerful communication and sharing tools to yourdomain.com with Google Apps!

Before you can access Google Apps' advanced features like mail migration, phone support and APIs, you'll need to verify ownership of yourdomain.com. Once you have completed the process, we will review your organization's status as an educational institution or qualified non-profit. In the meantime, we have signed you up for Google Apps Standard Edition.

To learn how to setup and deploy Google Apps, visit our getting started resource center for tips and instructions:
http://www.google.com/a/help/intl/en/admins/resources/setup/

Step 1: Sign in to the administrative control panel. Here you can manage your user accounts, customize Google Apps, and contact our support team. To access the control panel, visit:
http://www.google.com/a/yourdomain.com

Step 2 (applicable if you did not purchase domain when you signed up): Verify domain ownership. Before we can fully activate your services, you will need to verify ownership of yourdomain.com. From the control panel, you can verify by either uploading an HTML file or creating a special CNAME record. Verifying ownership does not cause any change to your existing services.

Step 3: To complete your upgrade to the education edition of Google Apps, please fill out the following form:
