Gmail – Append Second (Work) Gmail Account to Main One

gmail

I have a Gmail account which I use for both work and personal stuff, but my work started piling up lately in my account and it's hard for me to take time off in the weekends or nights if I see email marked as work.

What's the best way to approach this without changing my email address? Should I create a secondary account just for work to use exclusively on my work machine and have the main account forward and archive? Will I then be able to reply to those emails and keep the same email address as the main one?

Using filters you can redirect incoming mail. Take a look at Settings > Labs. You can setup multiple Inboxes and hierarchy of labels.
