Important notes:

• When you forward emails from Outlook.com to Gmail, the emails will be delivered to your Gmail inbox, but they may not retain their original formatting or attachments.
• If you have a large number of emails in your Outlook.com account, it may take some time for them to be forwarded to your Gmail account.
• You can also set up IMAP or POP3 access to your Outlook.com account and use a third-party email client to access your emails, but this may require additional setup and configuration.
