Gmail: Finally – Manage Multiple E-mail Accounts

The Holy Grail of e-mail is here.

Gmail has just announced that you can now check multiple e-mail accounts using the new Multiple Inboxes feature.  Gmail introduced multiple inboxes earlier this month, but you still weren't able to check more than one e-mail account and a time - until now.

You can now use Multiple Inboxes to see multiple accounts separately within the same browser window. Here's how:

1. Turn on Multiple Inboxes from the Labs tab under Settings.
2. Set up a filter to auto-archive all mail sent to your work or school address.
3. Customize one of your multiple inboxes to show mail sent to your other address. To do this, go to the Multiple Inboxes tab under Settings and set up one of the panes to search for mail sent to your other address.
4. (Optional) Use a "custom from" address so that replies will be sent from Gmail but as if they're from your other account. This way, your coworkers or classmates won't know the difference.

So now you can really go to town and let your ADHD personality have some fun!
