How to Transfer Gmail Messages – Step by Step
To configure the script, log on to your old Google account and then follow these steps:
- Click here to copy the Mail Forwarding sheet to your Google Drive (associated with old Gmail Address).
- You’ll see a new Gmail menu in the Google Sheet. Choose Gmail -> Authorize to allow the script to access your Gmail account.
- Once the script has been authorized, choose Gmail -> Transfer and type your new email address where the old messages are to be auto-forwarded.
The Google Script will now run in the background and will auto-forward every single message from your old @gmail.com address to the new one. The script will add the label “cloned” to all the threads that have been successfully forwarded. This is required to keep track of messages that have been processed.
The transfer process, depending upon the size of your mailbox, may take a few days to complete because of Gmail’s daily sending limit. The messages in the Trash, Spam and your Sent Items folders are ignored.
