Retrieve Email from your Other Email Accounts using Gmail

Configure your gmail account to retrieve email from your other email accounts:

If the email account you want to retrieve email from is a gmail account, you will need to enable POP on that gmail account. See Configure Forwarding in Gmail to forward your emails from another gmail account.

  • If necessary, enable POP on the gmail account FROM which you want to retrieve email.
  • Instructions for enabling POP on your gmail account are available from Google here: Read Gmail messages on other email clients using POP.
  • To retrieve emails from another account to your Gmail, see Google's help page: Check emails from other accounts. 
    • Then, follow the instructions under the "Get all messages" section. To import old archived emails, see the "Get only old messages" section.
