We use it for personal emails as well as our business emails &#8211;\u00a0 and we\u2019ve never been disappointed. Gmail\u2019s security is second-to-none and their spam filtering is the best we&#8217;ve ever seen.<\/p>\n<p>We get hundreds of good emails a week &#8211; and we get thousands of spam emails a week &#8211; but it&#8217;s extremely rare for us to get any spam in our inbox and it&#8217;s even more rare to find a good email in the spam folder.<\/p>\n<p>You can Gmailify 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\u2019s 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,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thundercloud.net\/infoave\/new\/12458-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">see this page..<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s get on with Gmailify. First choose the one account you want to Gmailify.\u00a0 You\u2019ll need your user name and password for that account to set this up. As soon as you enter your username and password for the account you want to link to your Gmail account with Gmailify,\u00a0 you\u2019ll get an email at the other account asking if it\u2019s OK for your Gmail account to access that account. If you want to receive email from your other account in Gmail, and Gmailify it, you\u2019ll have to allow Gmail\u00a0 to access it.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re going to give you the instructions on how to\u00a0 Gmailify an email account directly from Google\u2019s\u00a0<strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/mail\/answer\/6304825?ctx=gmail&amp;hl=en&amp;authuser=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gmailify page<\/a>.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2>Get Gmail features for your other email accounts<\/h2>\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\u2019s features with that address.<\/p>\n<p>To do this, you\u2019ll need to link your account to Gmail.

Let\u2019s say you have 3 email accounts in addition to your Gmail account. Let\u2019s 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\u2019t simplify your email. It sure simplifies mine.
