Multiple sending accounts in Hotmail & Gmail

When using your Hotmail or Gmail you may wish to create or reply from different addresses… eg. a Personal address and a Work address.

HOTMAIL:

1. Login and go to the HOME page of your account.
2. Look for Hotmail Highlights and click “Options”
3. This will take you to “Windows Live setting” (inexplicably), so find and click “Options” again
4. Now you are in HOTMAIL OPTIONS – under Manage Your Account click “Sending/receiving email from other accounts”
5. Here you will be able to add as many From sending addresses as you like (you will need to add and verify each one at a time)

GMAIL:

1. Login and select SETTINGS
2. Go to “Accounts and Import”
3. Go to “Send Mail As” – and select “Add Another Email Address You Own”

Now when you create or reply to an email in either Hotmail or Gmail, a drop down list will appear from which you can select the appropriate address.
