Receiving Queens College Email in Gmail and/or Sending Queens College Email From Gmail
You may have previously configured your Gmail account to pull your Queens College email and/or to be able to reply from Gmail as @qc.cuny.edu (send on behalf). This configuration relies on basic authentication, which is a less secure authentication method. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) requires modern authentication, a more secure authentication method. As a result, when your Office 365 account is enrolled in MFA, you will no longer be able to pull Queens College email into Gmail and/or reply from Gmail on behalf of your Queens College account.
Workarounds
- You can use Outlook Web to manage your Queens College email
- Configure a supported email client
- If you have a mobile device with the Gmail app, you can add your Queens College account to send and receive email as the Gmail app does support modern authentication and will continue to work with MFA.
