Using Terminal to connect to a server

Hi Scotty,

Have a quick question...If I use my Alias email xxxxxxxxxx@me.com as an email address, can I send stuff from this address too and have this address be shown? It is attached to yyyyyyyyyyy@me.com. I don't want people to see this address. I may need to just buy the xxxxxxxxxxxxx@me.com membership. Will it let me do this now that I have secured this as an email alias?

Thanks

Hi,

You should be able to use the alias address to send and have the recipient only see that email address.  To show you, I'm send this response to you as sellsconsulting@mac.com.  You'll see my name "scotty sells" but you will not see my normal email address in the "from" field which is sells@mac.com.  

You should not have to buy a separate account for that.  This is exactly what aliases are for.  You just need to remember to toggle what identity you're sending from by switching the choice found here...
