Re: Two GMail features that can help you manage your account

There are so many things to love about Gmail. I can go on and on. But here I am going to share two features which helps me a lot to manage my account. Specially when i have to share my email id on random forums.

For GMail, a “.” doesn’t matter. so if your email id is [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] then [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] and [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] are still your email ID’s. Similarly, if your email id is [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] then [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] is also your email id.

“+” sign. This is the feature i use a lot. So assume that I am signing up my new account on Gupshup, and i don’t want gupshup email’s to be cluttered with in my mailbox. I can signup by using email [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] and the emails will still be delivered to me. I can then put a filter in gmail that any email which has to:[email protected] should be archived right away. Normally, I have couple of filters like [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected], [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] and whenever I have to give my ID at a random website, I use one of these. And i don’t have to worry about anything. The best thing about this feature is that yo ucan use ANY TEXT on the fly. [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] will still be delivered to my inbox or [EMAIL=“[email protected]”][email protected] is still my ID

Woww, where have i been man?

The second feature you described does exist in office 365. I simply love it.
