Forward mails from one email account to another in real-time

We all have multiple email accounts for different purposes & its time-consuming & worth troublesome to keep track of all of them, if you don't prefer to use an Email client software like Mozilla Thunderbird. The best solution to this is to aggregate all mails into one main account and manage this account for all your personal, professional & social mails at one place.


    Also many of us prefer Gmail (the top player of Email world) only. So I've decided to put up in this post on how we can forward our mails from a gmail account to our preferred email account.

    Suppose we have one gmail account  with Email Id as old_g@gmail.com & we wanna forward our mails to to the preferred account i.e. new_pref@xyz.com then...

For Gmail users only
Goto Settings --> Forwarding and POP/IMAP
Then in the 'Add a forwarding address' section provide the new forwarding email address ( i.e. new_pref@xyz.com) and click on 'Send verification instructions'. Now follow the instructions thereafter.

Other users
Generally Mail Forwarding options can be found in Settings /Options section of any Email providing interface. Any problems ask me.

So now whenever you'll get a new mail in your old account, it will be forwarded to your new account in real-time(soon as they happen) & you'll get it in your new account as if they are sent from the original sender to this account of yours.
Hope you all like the post.
