Over the years I have collected quite a long list of addresses Email. There are two or three that I created as a teenager, with usernames like [email protected] And [email protected], as well as other accounts I created when I outgrew my old usernames or found a new email service to try. Even though I'm glad most of them work, I still get important messages that I don't want to miss on some of my lesser used accounts. However, I simply can't check four or five email boxes throughout the day. It's not a job that involves so many logins that I remember to check them for days on end.

So the solution is to create one unified inbox that collects all my emails In one place. All my messages arrive in one Mailbox, and I can respond to any email address. Creating a single inbox that collects all your emails isn't as difficult as it sounds, and I'll show you how.

Using Gmail to forward email

Sign in account The Gmail you want to send the email from. In practice, this will be a secondary email account that you use less. All emails from this account will be forwarded to another email account, most likely your main account will be checked much more often. In this tutorial, I'm forwarding email from one Gmail account to another, but Gmail can forward any email service.

In your secondary Gmail account, click the gear icon on the right and select Settings.

Find your Gmail settings.

Go to the tab Forwarding and POP/IMAP and find settings Forwarding.

Find the Forwarding tab.

Click Add forwarding address and enter your primary email address. Click Continue, to continue.

Enter the email address to which the forwarded email will be sent.

Gmail will send a confirmation email to the primary email address you provided.

Click Continue to continue.

Advice: If your primary email address is also a Gmail account, sign in by clicking your user picture in the top right corner of the Gmail window and selecting Add an account. Thus, connecting two accounts will allow you to quickly switch between accounts during the verification process without logging in and out.

Connect two Gmail accounts to make switching mailboxes easier.

In your confirmation email you will find confirmation code And confirmation link. Enter the verification code on the tab Forwarding and POP/IMAP in your secondary Gmail account or click the confirmation link in the email. Secondary accounting Gmail entry forwards the primary email address.

Enter the code or click the link to complete the transfer process.

Send email as another account

This is great, but what would make this really smooth is if an email sent from a Gmail address could appear as if it was coming from a different email account. I'll show you how to send email from other email providers in Gmail.

In Gmail, click the gear icon to the right and select Settings. Go to the tab Accounts and Import.

In chapter Send mail as, click Add another email address which you are using.

Gmail allows you to send email as another account.

Enter your secondary email address. You can also edit the display name and provide a different response to the address.

Enter the email address to which you want to send mail.

When prompted by Gmail, send a confirmation message to your secondary email address. In your confirmation email you will find confirmation code And confirmation link.

Send a confirmation email.

Enter the verification code in the window Examination in Gmail or click the confirmation link in the email.

Enter the code or click the link.

The Gmail account can now send email as a secondary email account. Repeat the process for all the email addresses you want to use in Gmail.

Once completed in the drop down menu Create new message a new drop down menu will appear From whom. Repeat this process for all of your email addresses.

Select the address from which you want to send the email.

Setting the default mailing address

Although you can choose which address you want to send the email from in the window Create new message, it may happen that you most often want to send email from email addresses Outlook mail or Yahoo than from your Gmail email address.

In this case, it makes sense to set a different email address as email addresses default in Gmail.

Click the gear icon to the right of the Gmail window again and select Settings. Go to the tab Accounts and Import. Here are all the email addresses you can send email with in Gmail.

All your connected email addresses will be listed.

Click Set as default next to the email address you'll most often use to send email.

The next time you compose a new email, in the From the address will be automatically selected Send mail as default address.

Emails sent using Gmail will appear as if they came from a different account.

Organize sending emails to different addresses

In an inbox of thirty messages, it may be unclear what is important and what is not, what emails were sent to each address. Gmail filters and labels can support all of these email addresses right in your inbox.

Click the gear icon to the right of the Gmail window and select Settings. This time select the tab Filters.

Select Create a new filter at the bottom of the window.

Create a new filter in settings.

There are many options for your filter, but for this tutorial you only need to fill out one of the fields. In field To whom Enter a secondary email address that forwards to your primary Gmail account. Click Create a filter using this search.

Gmail can do a lot with a filtered message, and it's best if you decide how you want to receive your forwarded messages yourself. Would you like them all to be marked as read and archived, or should they be marked as important?

Apply a label to messages that match your search.

I allow Gmail to process forwarded messages as usual, but I want to add a label so I know which account the message is sent to. Check the box Apply shortcut and select a shortcut from the list.

If you haven't yet created a label to handle forwarded messages from your secondary email address, select New label.

Create a new shortcut.

Enter a name for your tag and click Create.

If any previously received messages match the filter criteria, you can also apply the filter to those messages.

Click Create filter when you're done. All messages addressed to the second email address will receive a new label.

Conclusion

While it may seem like you need to ditch old email accounts or schedule time to check the various accounts that are still in use, with a little effort you can get all your email in one Gmail inbox. If you're having trouble merging email accounts in Gmail, be sure to leave a comment below and we'll help you figure out how to make it work.

When you switched from one email service to another (for example, from Yandex to GMail), you, one way or another, may need some incoming letters from your old email account that you used on another email service. Of course, you can log into both mail accounts and check mail in both, but this is inconvenient. What if you have 3-4 or more emails that you need to control? It’s even more inconvenient to go into each one from time to time!

In this case, the solution is to set up the collection of mail from the addresses you need in any mail services to one of your current email boxes, which you constantly use. As a result, all mail that will arrive at other mailboxes will flow into one of your mailboxes, which is very convenient.

In this article I will tell you how to set up such mail collection in the GMail mail service.

As a real-life example, what might require collecting mail from other mailboxes.

I have 4 emails under my control: one was created for personal purposes on Yandex, then I moved to GMail, creating there too personal mail. Another work email and one from my father, which I check because I can’t do it myself.

So, imagine if you constantly sit and look at letters in each mailbox, logging into each account separately! Therefore, I connected all mail to my personal one on GMail (you can set up mail collection not only in GMail, but also in any other services, which I will talk about in separate articles) and now all letters flock there. I set up additional filtering so that letters from each mail are placed in its own folder for convenience.

Here is an example of the usefulness of the function of collecting mail from several mailboxes into one :)

Remember that you can set up mail collection from absolutely any of your email boxes located on any mail services, for example, Yandex, Mail, Gmail, Rambler, etc. The main thing is that you yourself have access to the email boxes you need from where you want to collect mail !

Setting up mail collection from other mailboxes in the GMail mail service.

Collecting mail in GMail is done in the “Settings” section. Go there by clicking on the gear and selecting “Settings”.

Go to the “Accounts and Import” section and opposite the “Receive mail from other accounts” function, click “Add mail account”.

Will open separate window, where the settings for forwarding letters from your other mailbox will be made. First, enter the email address from which mail will be collected in your current mailbox and click “Next”.

Then you are asked to choose one of the options for collecting mail: link accounts using Gmailify or simply import letters from another mailbox.

The Gmailifi option appeared not so long ago and is the most convenient! It allows you to work with letters from another mailbox directly in the current GMail mailbox, letters can be filtered by category, will be checked for spam in Gmail, and you can also send letters on behalf of your second mailbox (from its address) directly in GMail. We can say that your connected mail comes completely under the control of GMail.

Thus, the option of regular forwarding (POP3) is no longer relevant, there is simply no point in using it.

Select the “Link accounts using Gmailify” option and click “Next”.

Then you will need to confirm access to your second mail by clicking “Allow” or a similar button (depending on the connected mail service).

If you are not already signed in to your second email account, you will need to sign in to confirm.

At this point, the setup is complete, you should receive a message in the next window indicating that your second email account has been successfully linked to GMail.

Just close this window.

After linking your account, mail will immediately be gradually transferred from your connected account to your current GMail account.

Emails will be filtered immediately upon forwarding and some emails may be classified as spam.

If there is a lot of incoming mail in your connected account, forwarding may take 20 minutes, or possibly more.

Conclusion.

Forwarding (collecting mail) from any mail services in GMail, as you have already seen, is set up very simply, in just a few steps. I repeat, this is very convenient when you have several mails and previously had to look into each one to control the flow of letters. And with the mail collection function enabled, all of it from all connected mailboxes will flow into one of your GMail emails!

Gmail.com email is the most popular email nowadays. This mail is provided by Google absolutely free.

Of course, a popular corporation could not create something simple. That's why mailboxes of this service are increasingly being chosen by users.

Due to wide popularity Google service It is very difficult to get a login you like. A large number of previously created accounts suggests that a large number of names are already taken.

Therefore, you will have to think carefully to write down not only a convenient and unique, but also a memorable login.

What is very convenient is that creating a login involves the ability to insert dots, dashes, underslashes, etc. into it. This will greatly simplify the task.

Check that mail creation occurs on the Gmail.com platform, and not on Gmail.ru. Since the second service is paid and there is a real possibility of losing your account.

So, how to create a gmail email and register on your computer.

1 To do this on home page search engine Google needs to find the "Mail" button.

3 After this, a new window will appear in which you need to fill in all the fields. At this stage you will have to come up with a name for the mailbox.

If such a login already exists, the system will indicate this and the user will have to change something.

4 Password is also a very important aspect of security. It should not only be memorable, but also heavy enough to prevent a hacking attempt.

The system will indicate the complexity of the password - an indicator will light up next to it and as soon as the bar turns green, you can understand that the password is secure.

You need to specify a phone number and an additional mailbox in order to secure your mail.

Notifications will be sent to your additional email that your email has been logged in, which will help you react quickly and change your password if something happens.

And a mobile phone, in addition to protection, gives access to additional features.

After correctly filling out all the relevant fields, click “Next”.

5 After correctly completing the previous steps, it will appear in which the rules of use and privacy policy will be written. Scroll down and see the “Accept” button. Click on it.

You will need to verify your account using mobile phone. To do this, you can select one of two options and the system will either send a message or make a call using a robot.

After completing these steps, the system will congratulate you on purchasing a new mailbox and offer to go to your account settings.

Don't neglect these settings. They include 3 points:

• Security and entry.
• Personal and confidentiality.
• Account settings.

Each item has a number of subitems. Here you can customize the service “for yourself”, making it as comfortable as possible for use and subsequent work.

1 In each modern smartphone I immediately installed a program called Gmail.

Typically, a mailbox is created at the moment when the smartphone is configured after purchase.

However, sometimes it happens that they are produced in a store, for this they use basic mail with simple password or create a simple email with a simple password.

It often happens that the user is not satisfied with this option. In this case, you can create a personal mailbox that will be configured as convenient.

First, we find the corresponding application, which is described above.

2 Find the side menu (click on the three bars in the upper left corner. Select the “Settings” item and click "Add account".

After which the email settings page will open. You need to click on Google (first item).

After which the system will prompt you to either enter an already registered address/phone number or create a new account. Select the second item.

After this, you will have to wait some time until the robot sends you an SMS with a code, but you will not have to enter it, since the program will recognize it and enter it automatically.

After this, you can fill out the proposed fields, such as date of birth and gender.

4 The next step is to create a login (mailbox name). I'll have to think about it. If such a name is already taken, then after clicking the “Next” button, the system will display an error and offer free options for selection.

Many of us have to register on a huge number of sites and, when registering, indicate email, but sometimes you need to register on one site more than once or participate in the distribution of games where you need to enter your email, but registering a new email every time is very expensive, and here one feature that is in the mail will help us GMAIL And Yandex. You can create an unlimited number of mailboxes from your mail, namely:

1) Take your mail, for example [email protected] and before the domains we add +1 (or any other number, for example +99)
Example: [email protected]
2) Now when you indicate this email (with +1 at the end or +*any word*) - to your email (main, [email protected]) you will receive a registration confirmation message (if required) or a notification that you have registered.
3) That’s all, now you can add as many numbers as you like and register endlessly with the same email.

Not understood? Here's an example:
1) You decided to register on some site for the second time, but your email is already taken:

2) Add +1 to the mail (or any other number, even +999999, it can also be a word)

3) We go to our mail and see:

2 identical letters requesting confirmation of registration, but to different emails:

4) And that’s it, by confirming the letter from your email (with a plus), you register for it (and all information from the site will be sent to your email):

I hope you understand how this function works. The example was given on GMAIL, but it also works on Yandex MAIL and possibly on some other mailers. They can also send you messages via email with +, but they will arrive in your mailbox. But, unfortunately, many large sites no longer allow you to register accounts for this type of mail in order to protect against fakes and bots.

Sometimes there is a need and/or an irresistible desire to “link” several email addresses to one mailbox at once - well, say, to register two different accounts on a website and not have a separate mailbox for this purpose (after all, how It is known that the vast majority of sites and services follow the logic of 1 box = 1 account). Of course, many people have several mailboxes at once and can set up automatic mail forwarding, but happy mailbox owners Gmail can organize everything much more simply and elegantly...

Actually, God himself told me to become interested in this issue - as you can see, this blog is bilingual (English and Russian), and I wanted to maintain the same situation in other services - in particular, Twitter. Since I absolutely didn’t want to create an additional mailbox that I didn’t need at all, I decided to find out how those who faced such a need before me solved such issues. And a very successful solution was found.

Gmail's hat trick

There are three tricky ways get several unique email addresses at once, which will be accepted by other sites, for one Gmail account.

1. Using domains @gmail.com and @googlemail.com

If you only need two different addresses (as I needed for the Russian and English versions of my Twitter), then you can simply use another Gmail domain, which are synonymous and will bring letters to your single inbox at both addresses. In other words, an address like [email protected] And [email protected]- It is the same. However, for all other sites these two addresses will look different, and therefore you can register two accounts on them at once and receive all letters in one mailbox.

2. Using dots in the address before the “dog” - [email protected]

Gmail allows you to separate your email name with dots to the left of the dog sign - with all options like [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] etc. are synonymous and all letters sent to them will arrive at their destination - to the original address [email protected]. Naturally, each such address will be considered unique in the eyes of other sites.

3. Adding an additional line with a plus to the name - [email protected]

And finally, the most sophisticated trick that allows you to get a virtually unlimited number of synonyms for your email address on Gmail is to use an extra line with a plus sign before the dog sign. That is, having an address like [email protected], can be used as synonyms [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]- when receiving mail, the system will send the letter to the address located to the left of the plus.

In addition, this method has additional advantage - quality example: if you include after the plus sign the name of the site where you registered using this email address, then later it will be possible to calculate which site leaked your address into the hands of spammers, because in the "To" line in the letter you receive, the entire address will be displayed, including all the signs after the plus. A convenient means of identifying exactly where your address was obtained from.
