Send Email from another address without "on behalf of" in Gmail
63
Previously, Gmail allowed us to grab emails from
other addresses but didn't allow us to send email replies from those
addresses without "on behalf of" Gmail address name.
For example if you forwarded emails from customaddress@mydomain.com to your Gmail account, username@gmail.com, you could only reply with the following “From username@gmail.com On Behalf Of customaddress@mydomain.com. Gmail did this to follow the mail protocol and help prevent your mail being sent to junk mail box.
It
didn't look professional, but now Gmail allows us the option not only
to receive email from other addresses but also reply from the same
addresses.
How to send email from another address without "on behalf of"?
- Go to “Settings” in your Gmail account and click “Accounts” tab
- Click “edit info” of the email address you want without “on behalf of” in it.
- Click “Next Step”
- There are two options, “Send through Gmail (easier to set up)” (which is the default option) and “Send through mydomain.com SMTP servers (recommended for professional domains
- Choose the second option
- Choose the port your “mydomain.com” uses for SMTP and enter your password and click “Save Changes”
- From thereon you can send emails from other email addresses directly within your Gmail account
I forward all of my hotmail emails to Gmail and it makes it easier to reply within Gmail this way instead of logging on to hotmail account and replying them.
If you are using your domain account in Google Apps, you can also do this above method to send mail as another address within your domain according to Gmail Blog.
I use Gmail for both personal and my domain accounts, it helps to manage emails very effectively.

Thanks BeatsMe, they are very useful if you use multiple email accounts like hotmail and domain email accounts.
very nice useful hub
Thanks Lgali.
Does this option still utilize Gmail's spam filters, or does sending through my servers mean I'm still stuck with Bluehost's terrible spam?
Alex, Thanks, Gmail will use their filters to block both of theirs as well as your hosts. You can also use Google Apps http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/group/index.htm and use Gmail to manage your domain's email accounts.
