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

Thanks so much! you made something that seemed difficult, EASY!
This is really helpful, thanks!
You're very welcome!
Just want to thank you for describing the steps so cleanly esp for people who aren’t techno savvy as myself. Here’s a Q though….I want to do the opposite and disassociate my 2 gmail/emails and don’t have the forwarding and POP enabled yet somehow emails are still going into both of my gmail emails. Now what? 😕
Excellent, I just did everything and set it up just like you did. Thanks very much
You are very welcome!
@@Simpletivity I get an error evert time I try to set up the “send as “
Thank you for this.
You are very welcome, Lauren.
thank you !!! it's really helpful !!
solid clear to understand video. I've done this before but this is the best explanation. No fluff like labels and stuff. Do one about domains and creating websites or blogs.
So glad you enjoyed this. And thanks for the suggestions.
Your information is too helpful for me🙂
Thanks, this is very helpful
Worked great, I now can get my youtube emails on my primary account and send from my primary. .

Thanks for the video. Is there a way of adding filters that will add an automatic label to the emails from the 'unwanted' mailbox?
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!
i am a newbie and i got most, very informative
awesome. just what I was looking for.
Glad I could help!
Thank you for this great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
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.
you 2 good!! great!!
very helpfull, thank you
Perfect
Dear Scott,
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.
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!!
Yes, you can certainly set this up to automatically have the emails sent to Trash after forwarding. Some really good points here. Thanks for sharing!
thanks for the help
thank you for the helpful video....
You are very welcome, Tahsin. Thanks for watching!
thank you for this vid :)
Thank you!
Great video very helpful
Glad you think so!
omg this is awesome
Thank you so much
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?
This is a wonderful tutorial, thank you!
You are very welcome. Thanks for watching!
Thanks dear…grateful video…
Most welcome 😊
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
Thanks for this tutorial i really appreciate !
Can i receive emails from both of my accounts?
You are very welcome! Yes, you can still receive from both accounts (and even more if you decide to forward from others).
Question what happens to the mail thats already in the other inbox the one we are forwarding from
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.
Wow. Very nicve! Thanks!
Thank you! Cheers!
THANK-YOU!!!
You are very welcome!
Thank U So Much, Sir U solved my biggest problem😊 Thank U 👍
Most welcome 😊
I've lost 6 hours of my life without getting anywhere near the solution till I found your videos, just 5 minutes before I was about to jump from my balcony to suicide myself a few times in a row, if posible. Thank you so much.
I'm also very interested in 66 idiots who gave you a 👎 and would be delighted to slap them in the face.
Your way of explaining things is excellent, precise but not boring. Simply perfect. You got yourself a new fan.
I have a question so if I were to combine to different accounts and do everything you said in this. Video let’s what if the 2 account gets closed would I still be receiving the emails to the account a forwarded it to if some one where to email or no that would. Be a whole other thing
Thanks for the tech-tip complicated but clear, I have a question, do you know how to consolidate G+ and youtube too?
Thanks for watching, Birgit. As for your question, the following article may be helpful to you: www.thewayoftheweb.net/merge-existing-google-page-youtube-channel/
Perfect !
amazing
thank you
I'm having difficulty getting my gmail to send emails on behalf of my outlook account. 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?
can someone tell me how to reverse this? I accidently linked both accounts but i don’t want them together
Omg!.. thanks a lot dude!
You are very welcome!
Hi Scott, what can I do if when I try to add the second Gmail to the main account for the Reply (my reply to an email that I already received in the merge of the 2 accounts) to reflect in both emails, when I try to do it, the little box tell me that it can't fo because it's doesn't support SMTP?
Thanks for the assist
wow, so cool
Will this apply to the calendar and reminders also for the tranfered account or just the email?
Making these changes will have no direct effect on your calendars. Any emails that your secondary account receives would also appear in the primary inbox. So if you receive email reminders from your secondary Google Calendar, they would also appear in your primary Gmail account. I hope that makes sense!
Thank you.
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching!
I have a small business and wanting to add a second Gmail account for my employees. But when I set everything up all my personal emails from primary account were in my new second account. Is the anything I could do? I want to be able to be selective on what is forwarded to them. Thanks
Hi Gina. The process described in this video will forward all emails from one account to the other. Am I assuming correctly that your business email address is used for both business and personal communication? If so, you may want to create separate accounts so that only the business address is forwarded to the second account (intended for your employees).
Super helpful, thanks! Question: are the calendars combined as well? Can I send and receive invites from one address or the other, opening only one calendar?
No, this only applies to the email addresses, not the calendars.
