Full Summary
Gmail's 'Send as' feature, which allows users to send emails from third-party addresses such as Yahoo or Outlook, will be discontinued in January 2027. This change will not impact users who send emails from Google Workspace aliases or other Gmail accounts they own.
Users can still manage up to 99 different email addresses, including their own domain aliases. To add an email address, users must verify ownership and may need to configure SMTP settings for work or school accounts.
If users wish to send emails from a different address by default, they must adjust both the 'From' and 'reply-to' settings in Gmail. Additionally, users can create email aliases for better organization, such as using 'yourname+work@gmail.com' for work-related emails.
