My university gives me an email that looks like
ab123456@domain
Fortunately, I am allowed to make an alternate name for my email, like
first.last@domain
All of the email is still sent through ab123456. In fact, when I set up the SMTP settings, I have to use this address. On my desktop client, I can send emails that say that they were sent from first.last. Is there a way of doing this in the new Gmail app?
I am using the new Gmail app (which absorbed the Email app) in Android 5.0.
