new email address

Posted on Wednesday, January 9th, 2008 at 4:29 pm

The time has come to give this site an email account of it’s own…

I’m now sending and receiving an awful lot of smemon.com related mail from my personal gmail account, and it looks way more professional receiving an email from a smemon.com email adress than it does a gmail.com address.

So in typical smemon style i’m breaking my email account into two; work and play.

Play will be my own personal email, it won’t change; smemon87 [at] gmail [dot] com.

Work will be the new sean [at] smemon [dot] com email address i’ve set up.

I’ve been incredibly evil of course, by using google apps and gmail to inter mix both accounts so i can send and reply to emails all from within the one panel, with a simple drop down feature as seen below. Pretty cool, eh? :cool:

I’ll have a guide on how to do that later, it’s pretty simple.

I’ve been using gmail since Dec 04, with the one email account, so over that time i’ve built up a huge contact list and get the usual junk mail every so often. At least with a nice shiney new email, it will be pure ‘quality’ emails at least for the first few month anyway :mrgreen:

    I think if you use Gmail to send from your domain you’ll have (added to ‘From Name:’ field) something like “On behalf of email@gmail.com“. Or at least, it was when I thought about using it… but didn’t because I don’t particularly like that.

    they must have updated it from ‘back in the day’ :mrgreen:
