Colleagues: I have some questions about the way Google Apps interoperates with MSU. I have read http://techbase.msu.edu/search.asp?keyword=google+apps&service=techbase and don't see answers to these questions. The one I have an immediate business need to answer is 3. The rest are just me wondering how this interoperates. 1. I have a "personal" Gmail account which I don't want to associate with MSU in any way. When I log into googleapps.msu.edu I am told "you are already logged in as [personal Gmail], would you like to log into MSU Google Apps with this account?" I always say No, and log in as my Netid in order to keep these separate. 1a. What would happen if I logged into googleapps.msu.edu with my personal account once by accident? Would it forever associate that account with MSU? Would it blend my personal docs with my work docs? Is this undoable? 1b. Would this legally associate my personal matters with MSU? For example, if I were FoIA'd at work, would I have to turn over my personal email account/calendar/docs? 1c. What other consequences of this am I not thinking of? 2. Do Community IDs get Google Apps accounts? 3. Can someone without a NetID or Community ID of any kind (no ID at MSU) collaborate with MSU employees through MSU Google Apps by just creating (or using an existing) Google ID? Thank you all for your time.
