Gmail's custom 'From:' feature lets you use Gmail to send messages with another of your email addresses listed as the sender in place of your Gmail address. This feature makes it easier to manage multiple accounts from the Gmail interface.
To add a custom 'From:' address:
- Make sure you can sign in with the address you'd like to add. You'll need to access the other account before Gmail will let you send from it. Please note: If you'd like to send from another Gmail username, be sure to sign up for the account first.
- Sign in to Gmail.
- Click Settings along the top of any page, and open the Accounts tab.
- Under Send mail as, click Add another email address.
- In the Name field, enter your full name.
- In the Email address field, enter the email address you'd like to send from.
- (Optional) When someone replies to a message you sent using a custom 'From:' address, the reply will be delivered to the 'From:' address rather than your Gmail address. If you'd like replies to be delivered to Gmail or a third account, you'll need to enter a 'reply-to' address. To do this, click Specify a different reply-to address and enter the email address you'd like.
- Click Next Step >> and then click Send Verification. Gmail will send a verification message to your other email address to confirm that you own it.
- Open your other account and either click the link in the message Gmail sent or enter the confirmation code in the Accounts section of your Gmail settings.
To use a verified custom 'From:' address when composing a new message, pick an address from the drop-down menu in the 'From:' field. If you're replying or forwarding, click change next to the 'From:' field first. You can also choose to automatically use the address to which a message was sent.
To edit the name or reply-to address for an existing entry, click edit next to the address on your Accounts tab. To delete an address, just click delete.
