How to set up a gmail alias for my officer email address?

8 years 8 months ago

Hello,

I am the Sergeant-at-Arms of club 7339 and want to set up my saa-7339@toastmastersclubs.org address as an alias to my felix@felixyap.com gmail address. The aim of this is to compose emails in gmail and choose saa-7339@toastmastersclubs.org as the "From" address. Went into gmail settings > account and added the saa-7339@toastmastersclubs.org address. The next page asks for the smtp server, username and password. What should I put in this?

Many thanks in advance,
Felix

You can not send email from saa-7339@toastmastersclubs.org it is a forwarding address only.

We do not provide out bound email service for off server emails.

If you put saa-7339@toastmastersclubs.org as your From address in gmail, your email may go through but many mail servers will see it as spoofing and mark the email as spam.
Thank you,
