Hi Jay,
This tends to come up quite a bit actually. When you have a Google Account
and a Google Apps Account with the same username, App Engine will pick one
of them depending on the settings for the app. So if your app is set up to
use gmail accounts, it will always use the Google Account, if you set up the
app to allow only users from your domain, then it will use the Google Apps
Account.

The admin console is a bit different since it supports both Google Accounts
and Google Apps Accounts. To sign in with a Google Account, you use
appengine.google.com/ for your Google Apps Account you use
appengine.google.com/a/yourdomain.com. The last hitch that trips people up
is that when you are creating a new app and you are signed in with an email
address that is both a Google Account and a Google Apps Account, it will
assign ownership of the new apps to the Google Apps Account, so you can find
the new apps listed at appengine.google.com/a/yourdomain.com

Hope this helps,

Jeff

P.S. at some point down the line, we're planning to merge the Google
Accounts and Google Apps Accounts so that this confusion will no longer
occur.
