I set up two alias accounts, but when I try to compose an email, the alias email accounts are not visible in the dropdown window. What am I doing wrong.
First, click the arrow to select accounts.
Next, click the arrow next to the account who the aliases belong to.

Hey @videone
I presume you were able to add the alias email addresses into your account.
1/. Did you click OK? - obvious that you need to do this
2/. Did you also click âSave & Closeâ? - a common mistake to miss this
3/. As @Gary indicates you should see your available address at #2 if you have done as above
ÂĄBuena suerte!

Skybat, that was it. I didnât click âSave & Closeâ. Duh. Thanks.
Another questionâŠwhen I send an email out using an alias in the âfromâ box it displays the name I gave the alias and my email address. Is there a way to display only the alias email address?

Hey @videone
Pleased that it was a simple fix.
Name displayâŠ
This will happen if the alias address is not registered with your ISP as
a separate entity.
If you own your own domain name this may not be an issue.
It may be that your ISP will allow several email addresses on your account
without charge; you will need to check with them.
ÂĄBuena suerte!

The alias address Iâm using is registered. Itâs a Gmail address.

Hey @videone
I have just setup an alias on 2 accounts that I have with no issue, with only
the alias sender address being shown when sent to a different address on a
different domain.
I can not help with Gmail/Google as I do not have an account to check.
Perhaps someone else with Gmail/Google will see your post to help you.
You should also check with Gmail/Google direct.
Also as an alternative you could setup separate accounts in eMC using
the alias address/es if you have a Pro account as the number of accounts
you have is not restricted, of course if you have a Free account you are
limited to 2 accounts.
My email address at the bottom of this post is an alias with a separate
rule populated mail box.
ÂĄBuena suerte!

I setup a dummy alias email address [email protected] using the eM Client support documentation link above hanging off my personal Gmail address in eM Client V9 and it appeared ok on the popout menu in the compose window.
Iâve also setup alias email addresses in eM Client on a friendâs Google Workspace Business domain account and it worked exactly the same.
If you want to set an alias email address as the default from Gmail to match eM Client, go online to your Gmail account, and click âSee all settingsâ at the top right. Then click âAccounts and Importâ and you will see a section called âSend mail asâ near the bottom where you can add whatever alias email address you want as the default for sending mail, and then click âMake Defaultâ on the right.
Then when you send email from eM Client the recipient will see the Gmail alias email address as the default reply address.
