Thread: Outlook- 2 emails to one Inbox

  1. #1

    Default Outlook- 2 emails to one Inbox

    I have been searching google for a while trying to find out how to do this , there is a lot of info , but for my technologically challenged brain cant seem to get this right . Do any of you know a simple way to have both my email addresses new emails sent to one Generic Inbox . I have a hosted domain email (rob@abcplumbers.co.za as well as a gmail email address )?

    If I understand you correctly, you should be able to do this in Outlook by setting up both e-mail accounts on one profile, they will then point to the same inbox and data .PST
    My current setup in Outlook with my 6 POP accounts, held in 1 .PST data file on 1 profile ( I have 2 profiles created, one for business and one for personal e-mails):



    I think there is a way to do this through g-mail but cannot advise as I don't use it

    My wife uses an autorule in the other mailbox to forward the mail to her regular one.

    This would be the easiest, on your gmail account, there should be an option to forward all mail to another mailbox. it works for me.

    i do it the other way round. let gmail handle all your extraneous/legacy mail accounts.
    that way you don't have to remember their passwords ever again, or add multiple mail accounts every time you set up a new device. you can create your filters online before the mail arrives on your desktop and if you reply to mails in your browser, you reply with the account that it came in on. the data is sitting in gmail rather than pop servers all over the place. if your local copy corrupts/gets stolen, just reinstall and resync.
    clearly this is on an imap setup, so that your mail is accessible on other deivces with the tags/folders you've created in gmail, and whatever change you make in one client is reflected in the others.

    Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so
