 If you have an iCloud email address, it is very easy to add up to 3 other 'alias' email addresses to your iCloud account.
Emails sent to these alias addresses will all come into the main iCloud email account, but you will see which address the email came to. If you use the Mail app, you will be able to send from any of those alias email addresses by adjusting the From address.

7/4/2026 0 Comments Discover Confidential Mode in Gmail PLUS Google introduces ability to change Gmail address Have you discovered 'confidential mode' for Gmail accounts? It is great for sending emails that have sensitive information, to make sure they are only seen by the intended recipient. This feature has been around for a few years, but many Gmail users are not aware of its existence or how to use it. We look at how to use it below.
And while we are talking Gmail has recently announced a change for US-based Gmail users that will be great news to many people. They can now change their Gmail email address! This feature will be coming to other regions at some point soon (I hope). Read on for more about this. 16/4/2025 0 Comments How can I share a video via email? If you have ever tried sending a video to someone via email, you will probably have found that it is not possible due to the large size of most video files - especially the videos you have taken on your iPhone or iPad. The same applies when trying to send multiple photos.
Here is a quick and easy way to share a video (or a set of photos) via email.  I regularly see clients who are having problems accessing their mail via a the Mail app on their Mac.
They contact me because their Inbox doesn't seem to be receiving any new mail, and they can't send any emails. Here is something that is so often the incredibly easy fix to this problem. 5/4/2025 0 Comments Do I have to use the Outlook app for my outlook.com email, and the GMAIL app for my gmail.com email? This question was posed recently by an iTandCoffee Club member.
We had been talking about using the Outlook app on her computer for managing her Microsoft email account. She had assumed that, given it was an outlook.com email address, she had to use the Outlook app on all devices, including her iPhone and iPad. Similary for her other email account, which was a GMAIL account, did she have to use the GMAIL app on her iPhone and iPad? And what about on her computer, where she didn't seem to have such an app available. This is a common misunderstanding when it comes to Outlook and GMAIL accounts and the apps by the same names.  I was recently contacted by a client whose emails are now hosted but The Messaging Company. She has been finding that her emails are either not reaching the intended recipient or are going into the recipient's Junk mailbox.
If you too are having issues with your emails and have a .tpg.com.au, netspace.net.au, iinet.com.au, westnet.net.au, ozemail.com.au, etc. email address - ie. any other variation of email addresses that used be hosted by TPG/iiNet - it is important that your email app is set up with the correct SMTP settings. 13/2/2024 0 Comments When I send an email to multiple recipients, those sent to Google recipients are rejected In recent months, I have been called on to assist numerous small business clients who have suddenly found that their emails - especially bulk emails - are rejected by certain recipients.
The common theme with the rejections is that the rejecting recipients all tend to be Google email addresses, and the sender is using Microsoft Exchange. (Although I did also have a client who was also having trouble sending to iCloud email recipients.) Here's what was causing their issue, and what we did we did to fix the problem. 8/12/2023 0 Comments I've received emails from Telstra saying I won't be able to send Bigpond emails from early 2024 In recent weeks, I have been contacted by several people who are Telstra Bigpond users, and who have received email/s from Telstra advising that they will no longer be able to send emails using Bigpond from next March - unless they update some settings on their device/s.
This can seem like an impossible ask for a lot of Bigpond users, who are generally not of the younger generations! In fact, in many cases, the way in which their email account is installed on the computer or mobile device is not even covered by the instructions that are provided by Telstra, further confusing things. In one email that I saw from Telstra, the instructions say to Remove the Account and re-add it. What the instructions fail to mention is that, if you do remove, you may lose all history of your emails, including all your sent mail. So what is it that Telstra is asking clients to do and why?  A business client of iTandCoffee, who used Google Workspace for their emails, had the serious problem that all recipients of their emails who used Microsoft email addresses were not receiving their emails. Emails were being received by everyone else.
Here is the advice that was given to that client, which I hope might prove helpful to other businesses suffering this issue. If you need help with any of the below, contact iTandCoffee. We offer support and training for small businesses and individuals, covering the most basic to more complex technology issues and questions. 2/9/2023 0 Comments Quickly translating any email I receive - via Outlook on the iPhone, iPhone or Mac I received a formatted email yesterday which was not in English.
I could select text from the email and see the translation, but the layout of the email made this a bit trickier. What I really wanted was a quick way to translate the whole email from Portuguese to English - as I may be getting more such emails in because of a trip we are taking soon. Here's how this can be easily achieved. |
