How to set up "Send Mail As" in Gmail with wordpress domain

    Hi,

    I’m trying to set up email forwarding with the domain I just purchased. I was able to set up the forwarding OK, but I want to be able to set up “Send Mail” as in Gmail, and that isn’t working. When it gets to the prompt asking for my username and password it says it can’t reach a server. I’ve tried TSL, SSl, and all the ports.

    Thanks,

    Devin

    Hi Devin,

    Due to some recent changes in Gmail, changing your “from” address in Gmail requires a Google Apps account. It isn’t possible to send mail from your custom email address with a regular Gmail account. We have more about your email forwarding options here:

    Please let me know if you have any questions about that!
