Use many email addresses on one iPhone email account
Authored by: TrXUK on Sep 13, '09 11:06:31AM

This now DOES work, thanks to copy and paste in IPhone OS v3, you can copy a comma from anywhere such as SMS, and paste in into the 'address' field in the mail account.

When writing a mail, clicking on the from field then allows you to choose from the two mail addresses, even though they are from the same account.

Have tested outbound using the smtp.gmail.com relay, works perfectly with my multi-address gmail setup.

Hope this helps someone, was the missing piece of the puzzle for me.

Use many email addresses on one iPhone email account
Authored by: joelm on Feb 11, '10 09:21:44AM

Sorry, but this doesn't work for me! :(

I have all my emails going to my Main Gmail account.
I tried this trick, by adding main@gmail.com,secondary@gmail.com into the address field under Mail Settings on my iphone.

Then I get an error saying:
<code>
Cannot Get Mail
The user name or password for "main@gmail.com,secondary@gmail.com" is incorrect.</code>

So basically, that's obviously not my username. My username is main@gmail.com

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks,
Joel M
