1
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:16,160
we have gotten a lot of requests for a video about this how to use one email

2
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:18,359
signin to manage multiple email accounts

3
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:22,400
so slick put together a little tutorial it's actually not as hard as you might

4
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:27,320
think so we're going to be using Gmail for our example but these steps should

5
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:28,920
be pretty similar in other email

6
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:32,480
accounts although pretty much the reason we're using Gmail to manage all the

7
00:00:30,519 --> 00:00:36,559
email accounts is cu it's pretty much what you should be doing so you go into

8
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:41,120
settings then you go to accounts and import so see I would have gone to

9
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:43,520
something like forward and pop SL iMat but that's actually if you want to go

10
00:00:42,399 --> 00:00:50,199
the other way around so we're going to be using accounts and import we're going to add another email address you own so

11
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:54,399
in this case we want the name for anything that we send from that other

12
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:59,079
email address to be still slick PC so that's fine and the email address is

13
00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:03,160
going to be slick PCT test hop see if you can tell we've done this before at

14
00:01:01,239 --> 00:01:08,479
hotmail.com these two don't really matter because you can edit this one

15
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:10,640
later and that is pretty much it so next

16
00:01:08,479 --> 00:01:14,960
step send through Gmail so this is easier to set up it doesn't make that

17
00:01:12,479 --> 00:01:19,560
much of a difference so yeah we're just going to do it that way before you can

18
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:23,000
send mail all you have to do is verify that you actually own that other email

19
00:01:21,079 --> 00:01:27,119
address which is sort of important so we send a verification over there an email

20
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:30,759
has been sent with a confirmation code then we check over here Gmail

21
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:37,720
confirmation send mail as blah blah blah here's your confirmation code enter that

22
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:39,640
into the other window which I have lost

23
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:44,840
there we go

24
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,520
verify and that's not quite it so okay

25
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:50,560
here we can change these options again so all that's fine so we can go back to

26
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:55,680
our inbox but you actually have to set up the other email account to forward as

27
00:01:53,560 --> 00:02:01,520
well so you just go into more mail settings email forwarding and forward

28
00:01:59,479 --> 00:02:06,520
your to another email account so slick PCT test gmail.com and then you can tell

29
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:10,479
it if you want to keep a copy of the forwarded messages in your outlook inbox

30
00:02:08,319 --> 00:02:14,400
I probably would doesn't seem like a bad idea okay the next thing we have to do

31
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:18,640
is go into Internet Explorer where we had set up a test email sending to Slick

32
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:23,519
PCT test hotmail.com and I minimized it excellent

33
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:29,239
so we're going to send that and go back to Firefox where we can see in our Gmail

34
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,599
inbox we have no new mail we have no new

35
00:02:29,239 --> 00:02:37,480
mail we have new mail there we go now what we

36
00:02:33,519 --> 00:02:38,480
do is we send back sort of blah blah

37
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:43,400
blah blah and we can change who we're sending

38
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:47,280
it from so we can either send it from Hotmail which is the default because

39
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:50,720
this was sent to the Hotmail account or we can actually send it from the Gmail

40
00:02:49,640 --> 00:02:56,920
account that we're using so we're going to send it from Hotmail back to this

41
00:02:54,640 --> 00:03:01,360
Gmail account blah blah blah blah and you can see that when you click down

42
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:06,799
here it is coming from the hotmail.com account so that's that's it it's that

43
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:08,920
simple pretty cool hey let's see if it's

44
00:03:06,799 --> 00:03:15,599
uh oh didn't save in sent but it does keep the uh it does keep the original

45
00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:17,840
one in here I hope this was helpful and

46
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:21,840
guys something to be aware of is forwarding the emails and sending emails

47
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:26,920
from that account does not necessarily qualify as signing in so if your email

48
00:03:24,239 --> 00:03:31,680
provider has terms such as you know make sure you sign in once every year or once

49
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:35,879
every 200 70 days or whatever it happens to be you actually have to sign in once

50
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:38,840
in a while so I would set up a calendar reminder for yourself or something

51
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:45,480
thanks for checking out this episode of Linus Tech tips and we'll see you guys later for more unboxings reviews and
