How to collect mail from other inboxes

Collecting mail from other inboxes can be a bit tricky, but I'll provide you with some general steps and tools to help you achieve this. Please note that some methods might require permission from the inbox owner or may be against the terms of service of the email provider.

Method 1: Forwarding emails

  1. Ask the inbox owner for permission to forward emails from their inbox to your own.
  2. Set up a forwarding rule in the inbox owner's email account. This can usually be done by going to the account settings and creating a new rule.
  3. Specify the forwarding address as your own email address.
  4. The inbox owner's emails will now be forwarded to your inbox.

Method 2: Using email forwarding services

  1. Sign up for an email forwarding service like Sanebox, SaneBlackHole, or Mailstrom.
  2. Set up a new forwarding rule in the service, specifying the inbox owner's email address as the source and your own email address as the destination.
  3. The service will forward emails from the inbox owner's account to your own.

Method 3: Using email clients with multiple account support

  1. Use an email client like Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, or Apple Mail that supports multiple email accounts.
  2. Set up the inbox owner's email account in the client, along with your own email account.
  3. Configure the client to check both accounts regularly and forward emails from the inbox owner's account to your own.

Method 4: Using email automation tools

  1. Use an email automation tool like Zapier, IFTTT, or Automator to connect the inbox owner's email account to your own.
  2. Set up a new zap or recipe that forwards emails from the inbox owner's account to your own.

Important notes:

Remember to always respect the inbox owner's privacy and only collect emails with their explicit permission.
