Create gmail alias
To create a Gmail alias, you can follow these steps:
Method 1: Using Gmail Settings
- Log in to your Gmail account.
- Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the page.

- Click on "Add another email address you own" under the "Send mail as" section.
- Enter the alias email address you want to create (e.g., [email protected]).
- Click "Next" and then "Send verification".
- Google will send a verification email to the new alias email address. Open the email and click on the verification link.
- Once verified, you can use the alias email address to send and receive emails.
Method 2: Using Gmail's "Send mail as" feature
- Log in to your Gmail account.
- Compose a new email.
- In the "To" field, enter the alias email address you want to create (e.g., [email protected]).
- Click on the "From" dropdown menu and select "Send mail as [email protected]".
- Enter your password to confirm.
- The email will be sent from the alias email address.
Tips:
- You can create multiple aliases for your Gmail account.
- Aliases can be used to separate different types of emails or to create a professional email address.
- When you create an alias, you'll receive emails sent to that address in your primary Gmail inbox.
- You can also use Gmail's "Filters" feature to forward emails from an alias to another email address.
