LPT: Ever need a temporary email but don't want to create a whole new account? Replace "gmail.com" with "googlemail.com" in your address & create an auto deletion filter. This way, all mail sent to addresses ending in "googlemail.com" goes to trash & you'll have a clutter free inbox.

Gmail treats "@gmail.com" & "@googlemail.com" as the same user account. Using this method, you can have two inboxes, one for all the important mails & the second for all the trash (pun intended).

By creating an auto deletion filter with the query to:(*@googlemail.com), you can have a spam free inbox.

Furthermore, Gmail also allows adding dots (.) & plus (+) in the username giving you unlimited addresses, like:

u.s.e.r@gmail.com
user+netflix@gmail.com
us.er+amazon@gmail.com

u.s.e.r@googlemail.com
user+pyramidscheme@googlemail.com
us.er+fidgetspinner@googlemail.com
