How to setup mail in Gmail App

I am using an android phone to show you how you will configure DMC RAC Official Mail in your Gmail App. It’s a very simple process. So let’s go ahead.

NOTE: Complete the above steps before configuring Gmail / other client. You won’t have password change option there.

Open your Gmail App and find your profile picture on the upper right corner (It’s not Anatomy). Then you will find existing Gmail accounts. Below them you’ll find “Add another account“. Tap it and it will take you “Set up email” page. Select “Other” from here. Then type your new email address in next page and press “Next“. Then you will be asked a question “What type of account is this?“, select “Personal (IMAP)“. Now enter your chosen password and hit “Next“. Now review Incoming Server Settings. Make sure server is “mail.dmcrac.org” and hit “Next“. Now review Outgoing Server Settings. Make sure server is “mail.dmcrac.org” and hit “Next“. Now you’ll see account options page, select all here (recommended) and hit “Next“. Now set your name and hit “Next” Now you are all set. Wait 15 minutes and all of your previous mail will load.

I have attached some screenshots. This may help you.
