How to use gmail with your domain name(s)

[floatingworld]

• 
  Register any gmail address eg [email protected]
  Set forward your domain name email eg [email protected] to [email protected]
  Log in to [email protected]
  Go to settings/accounts.
  Click add another email address
  Add [email protected]
  Complete the gmail validation sent to [email protected]
  ....the validation message will be forwarded to your gmail account.
  Messages can now be sent from your gmail account selecting [email protected]
  Messages to [email protected] will all now appear in your gmail account.
  The same [email protected] account can be used for running more than 1 domain name account.
  

*******************************************************
note: display of an email full headers will show the email coming from gmail, but normal display will not
*******************************************************
additional note: some internet services eg sedo refuse freemail id when you register with them. this facility gets round that problem :hehe:

google calendar:
google 'google calendar' after you have logged into gmail and put a google calendar bookmark into your google.com (or other extension) personalised homepage... it looks as if there is a link from your calendar to email but not vice-versa....
you can also run a number of calendars from the same address, eg a separate work and personal calendar.

Yes, I believe so, the gmail address is included in the mail header.

Yes, I believe so, the gmail address is included in the mail header.

But most people don't look at the full header and return path info. The important thing is that it just shows your custom non-gmail address in the From field.
