So to help these people out, here are instructions to instruct your gmail calendar to accept these. You only need to do this once.</p>
<p>Please note, this guide assumes you are already able to email with this alternative address, if not, after doing this go to &ldquo;GMail Settings&rdquo; and &ldquo;Accounts&rdquo; and add your email there.</p>
<p>This doesn&rsquo;t work for Google Apps, it&rsquo;s possible but your Apps administrator will need to add the full domain to the system and add the alternative email to your account. If they can&rsquo;t figure it out, forward them to me.</p>
