If it's a POP3 account, why not just set up a rule in either Outlook Express or Outlook to forward all incoming mail to your new address??Quote:

If you don't need to forward all your old emails - don't - that's pretty simple! They shouldn't have forwarded simply by creating a rule based on NEW email. The rule should only forward new messages as they come in, but like mentioned above, OE or Outlook must be running for this to work.Quote:

Isn't this a thread worthy of moving to the Tech-to-tech forum? I mean really, bringing a technical question into the lounge...it's truly despicable!

Now to the question. Bigfoot.com ( http://www.bigfoot.com ) offers free email forwarding and consolidation also "not free" email services as well. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif
the fowarding is to a ,,,,@bigfoot.com account ,,,, again,accesable thru outlook ,,,not gmailQuote:

if you already have a bigfoot.com account and that's the address you are giving old customers, then just change the forwarding address on your bigfoot account to your gmail address.....seems simple if I'm understanding the questionQuote:

I have got a gmail address now , and most ppl know the change ,,,,just an odd few that use my old addy.
i have got a fault with outlook ,,,"fatal error @ xxxxxxx" ,,so stuff outlook,
I simply want my mails from fsnet.co.uk , to go to gmail.com,,,,without any bigfoots or yetties gettin involved.
first, I would edit out those links to your email addresses freddy. spammers will have you on their list in no time flat if your email address is posted on a webpage. assuming those are your actual addresses
second, without signing in I can't really tell, but it looks like you can just go into your webmail at fsnet.co.uk (wanadoo) and setup forwarding to your gmail thru their web interface. Or they list an auto reply to incoming email, which you could setup to tell them your new email.
Chances are if there's auto replying, there might be auto forwarding too.
