The following information comes from https://support.google.com/mail/answer/138350?hl=en, with slight adjustments for the Drew domain:

Delegates can read, send, and delete your email messages. They can’t chat with anyone for you or change your Gmail password. When they send a message, their email address appears.

1. On your computer, open Gmail. You can't add delegates from the Gmail app.
2. In the top right, click Settings Image AddedImage AddedSee all settings.
3. Click the Accounts and Import tab.
4. In the "Grant access to your account" section, click Add another account.
5. Enter the email address of the person or group you want to add.
6. Click Next Step Image Added Send email to grant access.
   

   The person you added will get an email asking them to confirm. The invitation expires after a week.

   If you added a group, all group members will become delegates without having to confirm. 

   Note: It may take up to 24 hours for the delegation to start taking effect.

Viewing an Account you have Delegated Access to

1. Navigate to mail.drew.edu.
2. Log in to your regular Drew account if prompted.
3. Click on the Drew logo in the top right (with your profile icon or initial) to expand the menu.

4. Under "Manage your Google Account", you will see listed any of the other email accounts you have delegated access to. Click on the one you need and it will open in a new tab.

Please note: You cannot access delegated email accounts using a mobile phone app or any third-party email software such as Outlook or Thunderbird.

If you want to confirm that someone receives and opens an email message, you can request a read receipt.

Importantly, your Drew email can only request a read receipt from another Drew email address, and that address cannot be a group mailing list or an alias.

Also, there are a number of situations when a read receipt will not be generated - especially if someone reads an email on their phone.

Learn more about how to request a read receipt and when they may not be returned at this Google support page.

Please note the warning at the end: Do not rely on a read receipt to tell you that an individual actually read your message.

When you receive an email that includes recipients outside the Drew organization, Google will automatically label it "External".

• This label will be visible in Gmail on the web and Android devices; it is not yet available on iOS.

When you reply to an email that includes an address not in the Drew domain and not in your contacts, you will see a warning banner.

• The banner advises you to be careful with what you send, telling you the address that sparked the warning.
• Image Added
• You can dismiss the warning by clicking the X to the right of the banner. You will not be warned when emailing that address again.

Drew has some of Google's advanced security protections enabled. These protections mean that you will get an email but will see a warning banner telling you a little bit about why Google flagged the message. Some of the warnings you may see include:

• "Encrypted attachment" warning (see https://support.google.com/mail/answer/30719#zippy=%2Cencrypted-attachment-warning)
• Attachment allows unverified scripts (see https://support.google.com/mail/answer/30719#zippy=%2Cencrypted-attachment-warning%2Cattachment-allows-unverified-scripts)
• External links or images warnings
• "This message could be a scam" warning (see https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1074268)

To access delegated account please follow steps below:

1. Click on the image or initial icon at the top right corner of your screen
2. In the drop-down menu that appears, once the mailbox has been delegated you will see the mailbox listed with (delegated) after the email address. Click on the delegated account (note: If you have a lot of shared mailboxes, you may need to use the scrollbar on the right to view them all).
3. The shared/delegated account will open in a new tab or window. It will look just like another inbox but will NOT include: 

• Chat
• Calendar, Docs/Drive, Sites (calendars are delegated separately and will be accessed through My Calendars or Other Calendars in your Google Calendar view)
• Add-ons
• Access to some account settings
• Themes

Note: Once you have been added as delegate it may take up to 24 hours for delegated account to appear below your primary account.

Please refer to Google's instructions, at https://support.google.com/legal/answer/8151, and take note of their advice:

Note: If someone uses Gmail to harass, intimidate or threaten you, they're violating Gmail's Programme Policies. If you feel that you're in danger, contact your local authorities straight away and ask whether any cyber harassment laws apply to your situation.
