I noticed something strange in my Gmail on my Android phone.

Yeah, sometime back, what email asks for confirmation of your credentials every now and again, and you've just got to re-enter, it's usually OptusNet email that happens with.

So I do that and then it's okay.

But then just before Christmas, Optus had problems with their emails and I couldn't re-establish contact with them.

with OptusNet through my Gmail accounts.

And so I kept doing it.

And then I realized that my name had been spelled differently.

If I give you an example, maybe an email address is abcd at optusnet.com.au.

Well, that'd be my email address.

But this other email address had a line above the A.

No, I've not had any problems from it, but I went and looked for a Gmail address that I wanted to do some eBay shopping.

And so if I had an email and there was problems with it, I could just delete it and forget about it.

Sure, sure.

Sort of a throwaway thing.

So I went into settings.

So if you go into your email and then your top left corner with the lines.

Yep.

All the way down the bottom of settings, yep.

Settings, general settings.

Yeah, and then with your email accounts, you manage notifications there.
