[okfn-help] SIMPLE QUESTION: Gmail aliases

[Laura Newman]

Hi Sam,

There are two things you have to do to correctly alias an email account.

1) Click on the cog type symbol in the top right corner (options) > mail
settings > accounts and imports. This is how you feed messages from one
address into the gmail inbox, and I guess you did this already.

2) Click on your email address in the top right-hand corner > account
settings > edit email addresses, and add your okfn.org address. That was
the step I forgot when I was setting up my account, and could be where
you're going wrong. If you've done that already though, I'm afraid I can't
help.

Any good?
Laura
