Hi Marzia,

I was thinking a bit more about what might have happened and with your
explanation it seems to fit. My setup is:

Google Apps on 0gravity.co.uk with my account alistair there
Google Account for alistair at 0gravity.co.uk

I was signed into the Google Account at the time for alistair at
0gravity.co.uk and then as you say it more than likely recongised that
as a Google Apps account and moved the application over to that.

Can definitely understand how this works but guess it's something that
can be tweaked a little further down the line?

Thanks for the help though, now off to code on my app ;)

Alistair
