Gmail Trick for Multiple Email Addresses

To create unlimited email addresses with just your one Gmail account, all you have to do is add a plus sign (+) between your username and @gmail.com.

If your regular email address is lastname@gmail.com, you could do any of the following:

The best part is that emails sent to these addresses will still arrive in your regular lastname@gmail.com inbox. For anyone who frequently creates new email addresses, this trick is a lifesaver, eliminating the need for temporary accounts while still allowing for testing purposes and receiving follow-up emails.

Even if you’re not using additional addresses for testing, this trick can be useful for signing up for newsletters or tracking sources. For example, if you want to sign up for XYZ Widgets’ sales emails, you could enter your email as lastname+xyzwidget@gmail.com and set up a filter for any emails sent to that address. There are endless possibilities for organization and customization using this Gmail trick.
