Not available for awhile. UTS said they are planning on getting it to work eventually though.

I suggest forwarding all your received emails from your mcmaster gmail account to your personal gmail account. This way when you open gmail on your iPhone all your emails are in one place. You can even filter the forwarded messages to go to a mcmaster inbox folder if you want. I set this up yesterday and it works awesome.

Unfortunately the new SSO system diminishes any possibility of IMAP/POP forwarding. (I am guessing the people working on STMP administration on Mac came to the conclusion that we're not smart enough to log onto gmail on our own )
Meanwhile you can go ahead and forward your emails to a personal account until they come up with a solution for this "issue". Sending emails will still require manual login though :(

If you're using Gmail, you can join your McMaster account and your personal account and then you will have the option to send emails from either one, removing the need to log in manually.

You would still need to use a browser and log in to your other Gmail account. Using a mail client (eg Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail) doesn't work anymore.
