Send Emails from Your Gmail Aliases

🎯 What is it?

You can now choose which email address to send from when using Dust agents with the Gmail tool. If you have aliases configured in your Gmail account (like [email protected] or [email protected]), agents can now send emails from these addresses instead of only your personal email.

💡 Why is it useful?

Many professionals use email aliases to represent teams, departments, or shared inboxes. Until now, when an agent sent an email on your behalf, it could only use your primary Gmail address. This created limitations when you needed to maintain a specific professional identity or represent a team.

⚙️ How does it work?

When you ask an agent with the Gmail tool to send an email, you can now specify which of your configured Gmail aliases to use as the sender address. The agent will send the email from that alias, as long as it's properly set up in your Gmail account.

✨ Concrete Use Cases

Here's how you could use it:

Customer Support: Ask an agent to craft and send responses from your [email protected] alias, maintaining consistency in customer communications while saving time on routine replies.

Team Communications: Have an agent send project updates or meeting summaries from your team's shared email address (like [email protected]), ensuring all correspondence appears to come from the team rather than an individual.

📈 Benefits for you

• Professional consistency: Maintain the right email identity for each context

• Team representation: Send on behalf of groups or departments

• Time savings: Automate email tasks without losing control over sender identity

• Better organization: Keep communications aligned with your existing email structure

🚀 How to access it?

This feature is automatically available if you're using the Gmail tool. Simply ensure your aliases are configured in your Gmail account settings, then specify which address you'd like to use when asking an agent to send an email.
