We use it for personal emails and business emails and we&#8217;ve never been disappointed. Gmail&#8217;s security is second-to-none and their spam filtering is the best anywhere.<\/p>\n<p>You can add any Yahoo, AOL, Outlook (Outlook.com now includes Hotmail, MSN.com, Live.com, Live.ca) or some ISP accounts and use Gmailify to get Gmail&#8217;s features with your other email address. But while you can check mail from other accounts using Gmail, you can only Gmailify one. If you want to know how to set up Gmail to check mail from several other accounts with out using Gmailfy, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thundercloud.net\/infoave\/new\/12458-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">see this page..<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now let&#8217;s get on with Gmailify. First choose the one account you want to Gmailify.\u00a0 You&#8217;ll need your user name and password for the other account to set this up. As soon as you enter your username and password for the account you want to link with Gmailify,\u00a0 you&#8217;ll get an email at the other account asking if it&#8217;s OK for your Gmail account to access the account. If you want to receive email from your other account in Gmail, and Gmailify it, you&#8217;ll need to allow Gmail access.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re going to give you the instructions on how to\u00a0 Gmailify an email account directly from Google&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/mail\/answer\/6304825?ctx=gmail&amp;hl=en&amp;authuser=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gmailify page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h1>Get Gmail features for your other email accounts<\/h1>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"cc\">\n<blockquote><p>If you have a Yahoo, AOL, Outlook, Hotmail, or select non-Gmail accounts, use Gmailify to get\u00a0many of Gmail&#8217;s features with that address.<\/p>\n<p>To do this, you\u2019ll need to link your account to Gmail.

It worked amazingly well. Although we&#8217;ll give you a hint. If you have thousands of emails in your other account(s) inbox(es), you might want to archive some of them, or you&#8217;ll end up with thousands of email from your other accounts in your Gmail inbox.<\/p>\n<p>Gmailifying one account and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thundercloud.net\/infoave\/new\/12458-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">adding other email accounts this way<\/a> to Gmail, makes it really simple to set up your email in email clients like Thunderbird. Let&#8217;s say you have 3 email accounts in addition to your Gmail account. Let&#8217;s say you have an @outlook.com address, and @hotmail.com address and a @yahoo.com address. You could Gmailify all three of those accounts and get all your email via your Gmail address.<\/p>\n<p>Try Gmailify and see if it doesn&#8217;t simplify your email. It sure simplifies mine. And who couldn&#8217;t use a little more simple in this complex and complicated world?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gmailify [Or How to Link Other Accounts to Your Gmail Account and Get All of Gmail&#8217;s Features] We&#8217;ve been touting Gmail&#8217;s reliability and security for a long time.
