Using different address with gmail

Most of you guys have forwarded your emails from other email services to gmail for convenience purpose, but did you know that you can reply from the gmail account with the email address you forwarded your email. You can display anther email address in the “From:” field instead of your gmail address.

- First Log in to your Gmail account on which you wish to add another address.
- Click “Settings” on the top of the page.
- Then select the “Account” tab and then click “Add another email address” in the “Send mail as:” section.
- Now add your Name and the email address you wish to add to gmail. You can specify a different email address for “reply-to” address if you’d like email replies to be delivered to other email account, such as Gmail.

- When done with the above step, click next and then click Send Verification to complete the process. Then Gmail will send a verification message to email address you typed in to verify that the account is yours and you would like to add it to gmail.
- Then open the email inbox of the email address you wished to add and click the link in the verification email sent by gmail or copy paste the verification code to gmail to confirm your request.
- When done with all the steps you are can customize your email address in the “From:” field whenever you want to compose an email.
