Gmail mail forwarding
Gmail mail forwarding allows you to forward incoming emails from your Gmail account to another email address. Here's how to set it up:
Method 1: Forwarding emails to another Gmail account
- Log in to your Gmail account.
- Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner and select "See all settings."
- Go to the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" tab.
- Click on the "Add a forwarding address" button.
- Enter the email address you want to forward emails to.
- Click on the "Next" button.
- Confirm that you want to add the forwarding address.
- Click on the "Save Changes" button.
Method 2: Forwarding emails to a non-Gmail account
- Log in to your Gmail account.
- Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner and select "See all settings."
- Go to the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" tab.
- Click on the "Add a forwarding address" button.
- Enter the email address you want to forward emails to (this can be a non-Gmail account).
- Click on the "Next" button.
- Confirm that you want to add the forwarding address.
- Click on the "Save Changes" button.
Note: When you set up mail forwarding, you can choose to forward all incoming emails or only emails from specific senders. You can also set up filters to forward emails based on specific criteria, such as subject lines or keywords.
Tips and considerations:
- When you forward emails, the original email will still be stored in your Gmail account.
- If you forward emails to a non-Gmail account, you may not be able to use Gmail's features, such as labels and filters.
- If you forward emails to a Gmail account, you may be able to use Gmail's features, but you may also receive duplicate emails.
- You can set up multiple forwarding addresses, but be careful not to forward emails to multiple addresses, as this can cause duplicate emails.
- If you want to stop forwarding emails, you can go back to the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" tab and click on the "Remove" button next to the forwarding address.
