How do I forward my Gmail mail to another account?

Hi, can you please send me the procedure how to redirect the mails from Gmail account to Yahoo account?


Dave's Answer:

This is easily done, though I find Gmail a far better interface than Yahoo Mail, but that's just a matter of personal preferences... :-)

Log in to your Gmail account and click on "Settings", then "Forwarding and POP":

Google Gmail Settings: Forwarding and POP

Now you can see where you can specify the forward you seek:

Google Gmail Settings: Forwarding and POP

The pop-up gives you three choices, btw:

Google Gmail Settings: Forwarding and POP

That's all you need, you should be able to set this up and live happily in Yahooland!

One thing though. Forwarding doesn't exclude spam. So if you have a lot of emails in spam flder -- they will also be forwarded.

It's really too bad that yahoo! doesn't let you forward mail to Gmail without paying $20 a year.
