How to send mail for google alias account
To send mail from a Google Alias account, you'll need to set up the alias and configure your email client or app to use the alias. Here's a step-by-step guide:
Step 1: Set up your Google Alias
- Go to the Google Admin Console and sign in with your administrator account.
- Click on "Apps" and then "G Suite" (or "Google Workspace").
- Click on "Users" and then select the user account you want to create an alias for.
- Click on "Email" and then "Add alias".
- Enter the alias email address you want to create (e.g., [email protected]).
- Click "Save".
Step 2: Configure your email client or app
- Open your email client or app (e.g., Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail).
- Go to the settings or preferences section.
- Look for the "Accounts" or "Email" settings and click on it.
- Click on "Add account" or "New email account".
- Enter the alias email address (e.g., [email protected]) and your password.
- Make sure to select the correct account type (e.g., Gmail, Google Workspace).
Step 3: Verify the alias
- After setting up the alias, you'll need to verify it by sending a verification email to the alias address.
- Check your inbox for an email from Google with the subject "Verify your alias".
- Click on the verification link in the email to confirm the alias.
Step 4: Use the alias to send mail
- Once the alias is verified, you can use it to send mail from your email client or app.
- When composing a new email, select the alias account from the account dropdown menu.
- Enter the recipient's email address and compose your message as usual.
- Click "Send" to send the email from the alias account.
Tips:
- Make sure to use the same password for the alias account as for the original account.
- If you're using a third-party email client or app, you may need to configure it to use the alias account separately.
- You can also use the Google Workspace Admin Console to manage aliases and configure email settings for your organization.
