Selectively forward email from one sender to another email account

Allmost all email service providers like Yahoo, MSN Hotmail provide an option to forward the mails that come to your inbox to another email account. In Gmail , we can actually change the settings so that , only mails from a particular sender are forwarded to your another email account, In this tutorial we will explain how you can do the same.

You must be aware of Gmail filters, or Labels . You can label the mails from a particular sender, mark the mails etc , To setup a mail filter , login to your gmail account, navigate to settings

Select the “Filters” tab and setup a new filter as shown below (scroll to the bottom of the page to create new filter).

Well , In this as an example , we have set the filter to selectively forward mails from me@example.com to the current email id mycurrentemailaddress@example.com

Click on “Create a filter with this search”

In the next screen, Select the option “Forward it” and add a destination email address, Which is mynewemailaddress@example.com in this example. Now, all emails that are sent from me@example.com will be forwarded to mynewemailaddress@example.com
