Official Gmail Blog: Send mail from another address without "on behalf of"

chartier:

This is excellent news. For quite some time, Gmail has allowed users to send email from alternative addresses. This usually works great, but many recipients will see “from: user@gmail, sent on behalf of your@customaddress.com.” This happens especially with some versions of Outlook, and considering that it is the most popular email client, this is a problem.

Now, Gmail allows users to add custom outgoing server information for each non-Gmail account they have set up. Your messages technically get sent through each address’ official servers, so the unfortunate “on behalf of” bit ceases to be part of the equation. Problem solved.

Another reason to love Gmail.
