How to Combine 2 Email Accounts (Gmail Forwarding Tutorial)

Managing multiple email accounts can be so frustrating. So why not have all your email forwarded to your primary Gmail address? In this video, Scott Friesen shows you how to setup your Gmail account so that you can both receive and send email as if you were using multiple accounts.

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

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!!

I love you man....!!! I've been trying to do this for two weeks and never thought of "forwarding" email. Thank you so much! I would assume calendar events will pop up also, but I can test that.

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? 😕

[Crystallluss]

[Samir-rdxp]

[hansnunez]

A fountain of wisdom. In glad I suscribed to your videos Scott

[mandragora]

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.

[Jonokile]

After watching more of this video, it seems a good email client program would be a much better arrangement to use.

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.

YOU ARE SUCH A GREAT TEACHER
THANK YOU

[nfernando]

A perfect tutorial. Exactly what I needed. Thank you so much for the effort you’ve made!

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?
