Great tutorial! Thank you so much. It worked perfectly – first try. Been wondering how to do this for a long time as the iPad makes it so easy… thanks again.

Watch this short video if you want to understand the difference between POP and IMAP: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcvdhjLVYfY

Disabling IMAP will not affect multiple inboxes…

Nevermind, I figured out how to do it…. one other question though… why do you have to enable IMAP? I don’t really understand what IMAP is, but it doesn’t seem like you need to have it enabled unless you’re accessing your account from a wireless device… will disabling affect the multiple inboxes?

So if someone sends a message to a secondary email… will this feature allow you to respond back from that address instead of your primary one? Or do you have to sign out and then log into the secondary account to respond using that address?

No. For account A and B to sync, both accounts need to support IMAP. Gmail does not support third party IMAP account at the moment, so you can’t get it to sync.

hanks! A question: in the primary account A if I delete any email from a
secondary account B I will see the original email if I log into B
account. Is it possibleto sync account A with account B so that if I
cancel an email of account B in the primary account automatically it
wil be deleted in account B?

You can easily set a filter to forward a non-Gmail account.

This is what I’ve been looking for! Would it also work if I wanted to forward a non-Gmail account?

My IPAD manages 4 gmail accounts by allowing me to select which mailbox I would like to view and has an option to view all together. There is no forwarding or duplicating email so if an email is deleted from display it is really deleted. The “secondary” gmail addresses never lose their email it is either displayed on it’s own or tegether in a big list. Also when I reply the reply email address is automatically the one to which the email was sent. This has been a great time saver and convenience. I have often wondered how Apple could do this so easily and it does not seem possible through Microsoft.

The disadvantage is if someone got into your mail account he would be able to get into all the other accounts too. So using Gmail Multiple singin feature is better i think

It's also possible to use the “to:” qualifier in the query to ensure that only messages addressed to the second address are shown in the second inbox. For example, to:second@address.nil
