Gmail – Unable to send email to people in Google+ circles

gmailgoogle-contactsgoogle-plus

Recently, a Google blog post announced that one can now send emails to people in their Google+ circles. I am able to do that from my main GMail account but a new account I created doesn't have access to this feature. Is there something one needs to do on a new account to enable this feature?

I should also mention that the option Who can email you via your Google+ profile? in settings is available but just that when composing email, suggestions from G+ connections are not shown.

You can only email people who you already have them in your Google+ circles. If you created a new Gmail account, then to be able to email people you know from Google+ you should create a Google+ profile using your new account, then add those people to your circles (using this new profile) and then you will be able to email them using your new Gmail account
