How To Forward Your Domain Emails To Gmail Account
Running business on internet is not an easy job as you need to be organized with everything. Google Apps, as you all know, is one such collection of tools that help you to be organized on internet. This service by Google is a boon for businessmen. With mails, docs, calendars and other services it makes the work of businessmen easy.
Google Apps mailing service is useful to us in two ways.
1) It provides us with a different mailing account, so that we could keep our mails safely.
2) It helps us to promote our business by giving our own mail account with our own domain name. For example, like pramodh@techmonk.com
But still, its difficult to mange multiple accounts and multiple logins as your business grows. So, I thought of sharing something useful that I found while stumbling. With this trick, you can forward all your @domainname account mails to your @gmail account.
Here is the illustration of how to do it.
- First, login to your apps account and click on the “settings” button on the top right corner of the window.
- Select the tab “Forwarding POP/IMAP”. There, select the option “Forward a copy of incoming mail to” and enter your @gmail account address. You can look at the pic below.

- Now, login to your Gmail account, go to “settings”(situated at the top right corner) and there select, “Accounts and Imports” option.
- There, under the “Send Mail As” category, click on the “Send Mail From Another Address” option. Follow the procedure and add another account (i.e., the apps account) of your own.

- After the above step is completed, select the option “Reply from the same address the message was sent to” .
- Yes, that’s it. You must now be receiving your @domainname account mails in your @gmail account.
Just For Verification
If you want to verify, just send a mail from your @gmail account to your @domainname account. You will be receiving a mail to your @gmail account as soon as you send it. You will be having a copy of the mail in your @domainname account depending on the setting you have chosen in the second step.
