Fetching yahoo emails via gmail account

A clever idea!

To fetch Yahoo emails via a Gmail account, you'll need to use a third-party service or script that can forward emails from Yahoo to Gmail. Here are a few options:

Option 1: Use a third-party email forwarding service

Sign up for a service like Sanebox or SaneBlackHole, which offers email forwarding from Yahoo to Gmail.
Set up your Yahoo account with the service, and configure the forwarding rules to send emails to your Gmail account.

Option 2: Use a script or automation tool

Use a scripting language like Python or PowerShell to create a script that fetches emails from Yahoo and forwards them to Gmail.
You can use libraries like imaplib (Python) or System.Net.Mail (PowerShell) to connect to Yahoo's IMAP server and retrieve emails.
Use the smtp library (Python) or System.Net.Mail (PowerShell) to send emails from Yahoo to Gmail.

Here's an example Python script using imaplib and smtp libraries:

import imaplib
import smtplib
from email.mime.text import MIMEText

# Yahoo IMAP settings
yahoo_imap_server = 'imap.yahoo.com'
yahoo_imap_username = '[email protected]'
yahoo_imap_password = 'your_yahoo_password'

# Gmail SMTP settings
gmail_smtp_server = 'smtp.gmail.com'
gmail_smtp_username = '[email protected]'
gmail_smtp_password = 'your_gmail_password'

# Connect to Yahoo IMAP server
yahoo_imap = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL(yahoo_imap_server)
yahoo_imap.login(yahoo_imap_username, yahoo_imap_password)
yahoo_imap.select('inbox')

# Fetch emails from Yahoo
emails = []
yahoo_imap.search(None, 'ALL')
for email_id in yahoo_imap.search()[1].split():
    email_data = yahoo_imap.fetch(email_id, '(RFC822)')
    email_message = email_data[0][1]
    emails.append(email_message)

# Connect to Gmail SMTP server
gmail_smtp = smtplib.SMTP_SSL(gmail_smtp_server, 465)
gmail_smtp.login(gmail_smtp_username, gmail_smtp_password)

# Forward emails from Yahoo to Gmail
for email in emails:
    # Parse email message
    msg = MIMEText(email)
    msg['Subject'] = email['Subject']
    msg['From'] = email['From']
    msg['To'] = email['To']

    # Send email from Yahoo to Gmail
    gmail_smtp.sendmail(yahoo_imap_username, gmail_smtp_username, msg.as_string())

# Close connections
yahoo_imap.close()
yahoo_imap.logout()
gmail_smtp.quit()

Note: Before using any of these options, make sure you have the necessary permissions and settings configured on both Yahoo and Gmail accounts. Additionally, be aware of any potential security risks or limitations when forwarding emails between accounts.
