IOS – How to get iPad (iOS 7) to use the email aliases I have set up on gmail

emailgmailiosipad

I have an iPad with iOS7. This is set up with 2 email accounts (gmail and ISP default).
I want to use the "Contact Us" option on one of my apps, but this offers me the options of using either of the mail logon email addresses.
I NEVER use either of these, and don't disclose these to anyone (so I can easily change when they get too much spam).

My question is how do I get the iPad to use the email aliases I have set up on gmail.

Try this in iOS 7: This works when you have an authenticated alias set up as your default in Gmail.

Settings → Mail, Contacts, Calendars → Add Account → Other

On "Account" Page:

  • Email: you@personaldomain.com
  • Password: Your personal domain password

  • Incoming Server: imap.gmail.com

  • Username: Your Gmail username
  • Password: Your Gmail password

  • Outgoing Server: pop.gmail.com

  • Username: Your Gmail username
  • Password: Your Gmail password
