Y Margolis"Just about when I thought I got everything out of Gmail, I discovered my top
favorite feature. We have published over 30 tools in
Gmail
RoundUp 1
and almost 80 tools and tips in
Gmail
RoundUp 2
but never mentioned anything similar to this one. Tribute for this
one goes to my ‘I am not into computers‘ type girlfriend.
Let’s say that your email address is ‘GeorgeBush@gmail.com’, basically
everything sent to any of the following email addresses will be forwarded to
your primary email.
GeorgeBush@gmail.com
G.eorgeBush@gmail.com
Ge.orgeBush@gmail.com
…
…
GeorgeBus.h@gmail.com
GeorgeBush@googlemail.com
G.eorgeBush@googlemail.com
Ge.orgeBush@googlemail.com
…
…
GeorgeBus.h@googlemail.com
And that’s not all, you can place as many dots as you want, it can be even
something like ‘G.e.o.r.g.e.B.u.s.h@gmail.com’ and you’ll still get it on
‘GeorgeBush@gmail.com’
Additionally, I just also found out that you can embed random text to your
email ID using ‘+’ sign. That is to say
‘GeorgeBush+anythingyouwant@gmail.com’ can be used as your email
address, as well.
Ok I got it. Now what ?
1. One email for every purpose
Instead of using different email addresses for various purposes (work,
school, friends, etc.) you can use different variations of your Gmail and filter
incoming mails by ’sent to’ address. For instance, all incoming mail sent to
‘Name.Surname@gmail.com’ can be put to folder ‘work’, messages sent to
‘NameSurname@gmail.com’ can be put to ‘friends’, ‘N.ameSurname@gmail.com’ can be
used for newsletters, and so on.
2. Track/Block spammers
When signing up for some website, say thatwebsite.com, you can add
thatwebsite to your Gmail user ID (eg.
GeorgeBush+thatwebsite@gmail.com). This way you can block your
subscription whenever you want and even identify those websites that distribute
your email address to spammers.
UPDATE:
Hello folks, here is another EXCELLENT find for Gmailers. Download Gmail
