You can also use your existing Yahoo or Hotmail email address from GMail. The trick is to customize the ‘From:’ field of any Gmail message you send so it appears to be from another one of your email addresses. Your outgoing Gmail messages will then display another one of your other email addresses in the ‘From:’ field (instead of your Gmail address).

* Log in to your Gmail account at mail.google.com.
* Click ‘Settings’ at the top of any Gmail page.
* Open the ‘Accounts’ tab, and click ‘Add another email address.’
* Enter your other email address in the text box, and click ‘Next Step.’
* Click ‘Send Verification.’ An email will be sent to your old account to verify that you entered the correct email address. Follow the instructions in the verification email, and start using your Gmail account to manage all of your email addresses.
