So far it works GREAT. I have multiple accounts and it keeps them separate and tidy all in one screen.

I have a suggestion for those who are having issues with this thing messing with your already established Google account set up. Instead of the “Use a different email address” idea, just add a “+” suffix to your current registered email. Any mail sent to it will still come to your original email box, but the game/website/whatever will see it as a unique email address.You can make as many as you want and most email providers – gmail, hotmail, yahoo – recognise it just fine. I found this WAY easier to handle multiple accounts.

For example – I use “myemail+gw@gmail.com” for one account, “myemail+gw2@gmail.com” for a second account, “myemail+tsw@gmail.com” for The Secret World account, “myemail+wow@gmail.com” for WoW, etc etc etc.

They ALL redirect back to “myemail@gmail.com” but they are viewed as unique email addresses by those programs.

You can just continue to make up things like this for every thing you sign up for on the internet and it will all redirect to the same inbox.

My 2c. Works for me.
