Anyone know if it is possible to forward all incoming mail automaticly using Simplemail ?
I'm going on vacation for a few weeks and I thought it would be nice fo have all mail send to my normal mail adres forwarded to my Gmail adres.
Is this at all possible ? Maybe via my ISP ?
Thanks
Martin

Gmail itself can fetch your ISP's POP3 email for you. Go into the gmail settings on the website, then "Accounts and Import".
Or if you're just going to be using the Gmail app on your phone, you can set up your ISPs account on there too. I'm assuming the only reason you want to do this is so there's 1 central place to get all of your e-mails?
Why do you want to do it this way specifically, instead of just setting up an e-mail program on your phone or computer to fetch from both accounts? You can enable POP3 and IMAP for Gmail too.

Yup, it sure can. I've been using that on my and my wife's Gmail accounts for years.
It even has an option to put a label on it so it filters them into their own folder.
