    Another awesome tech tip! Clearly described and works great, no more flip flop between gmail accounts. Especially valuable on a hand held device. Thanks

    Hi, I've done everything in your video to forward my second gmail account however it is not. The test email is only showing up in the second and not being forwarded. I received the conformation, confirmed it, when back into the settings and changed from disable to allow and then saved it. Still when I check they are not forwarding. Any ideas where I can go from here?

    Hi Scott, I think I got all that and it might or might not work for me. My problem is that Google seemed to just duplicate on it’s own. In other words, there are 2 different emails both with the exact same address and oddly, I discovered that an email I sent from the account I primarily, was answered at the 2nd account with the same address, leading me to wonder if there’s a lot of emails I didn’t actually see because went to my 2 personality. Is this weird? Thanks, Amy

    This is what im exactly looking for. Very clearly explained. Sharp and crisp. This a way easy trick than getting the domains. Need clarification, if I combine my official email and personal email I'd and if my official gmail I'd is terminated will this still work and keeps forwarding the msgs to the second one. Pl lemme know. Expecting your reply ASAP.

  • @chickadddee
    @chickadddee 3 місяці тому +1

    Very helpful Scott, thank you! I think I would choose to delete the emails from the account I am forwarding from, just because all the emails will pile up, and accumulate in All Mail, I assume. If I truly want to "forget" it's there I think it's sensible to use that feature. Think of a private email that you would want to delete, then you would indeed have to go into that secondary email to delete it there too, right? (I am a person that likes to clean up my All Mail anyway, might as well do it in one inbox like everything else). Edit: Don't choose the delete option until you are all set up!! ha. And don't forget to add this new one to Mac mail if you use it. Just because it is forwarded to your first gmail doesn't mean it functions properly (especially for the 'from' option to show up) in Mac mail. All done now! Yippee!!

    • @Simpletivity

      Hi William. When setting up your email forwarding, you get to choose what happens to messages in the 'from' inbox. Take a look at the video at 4:08 to see those options.

Even though my username and password for the outlook are correct, gmail won't accept them and says to make sure everything is correct, except it is. Is there an extra step to doing this when it isn't just dealing with 2 gmail accounts as you show here?

  • @urg454
    @urg454 Рік тому

    Amazing, only thing missing is to Create a Label, and apply a filter so all the emails coming from B to A will be marked with a Label B, making it easy to understand that email is of which inbox, without opening the email.
    One question, can i use POP3 instead of Forwarding between Gmails and what's the difference between both ? Thanks.

I can't figure out how to make it stop so I receive the email list emails back in my hotmail account.

    Is there after setting up and linking all accounts to one account that I can click "erase" in the primary account and it also erases it in the original account that forwarded the email to the primary account. I find myself clicking erase in the primary but then my forwarding account still has all the spam, old emails I do not want any longer. However, there may be some that I want to keep in a filter/label on primary account and do not want to lose it in the forwarding account

    Thanks for the video. Is there a way of adding filters that will add an automatic label to the emails from the 'unwanted' mailbox?

    • @Simpletivity
      @Simpletivity  6 років тому

      Yes, you certainly can. Here's how to make such a filter:
      1. In the search box, search for messages sent to your email address (i.e. to:example@domain.com).
      2. Then select the small arrow on the right side of the search box - this will display the advanced search menu.
      3. Select 'Create filter with this search'
      4. Select 'apply a label'.
      I hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
