Gmail Alias Emails for Sorting and Filtering Before Your Inbox

“I use gmail for Enterprise, and I have the option to create quick e-mail aliases in my admin account. I love this feature, and was curious about it’s availability in standard, tradition gmail accounts. Turns out, you don’t actually have to create or setup anything for an alias. Just enter an email address in this format:
gmailusername+Notes@gmail.com

Any e-mail sent to gmailusername+Notes@gmail.com is actually being sent to gmailusername@gmail.com.

This becomes super-useful when you then create a simple filter in your gMail inbox to move any message sent to gmailusername+Notes@gmail.com to a specific folder, likely called Notes. Or just apply a specific label to these messages, whatever you prefer.

Here is the official Google article – https://support.google.com/mail/answer/12096?hl=en

Hope some of you find this useful & effective.”

I'm a web and graphic designer with a special interest in Wordpress development. I'm splitting my time between Toronto firm work, and Niagara freelance - the best of both worlds.

To say I'm a man of many hats is an understatement. My friends and family will be the first to say there isn't much I can't do, and do well. Don't be surprised to find me writing about some offbeat or otherwise unexpected subjects.
