My gmail archive has 145,000 messages threads (mostly from yahoo and google groups) Turns out one forum I belong to lost their current and backup messages and I've got a full copy (approx 90 threads). I've set up a filter that found all the messages based on from address and set up a new Google-group to which I want to forward these 90 threads so the owner can recreate the forum. (probably around 200 email messages in total). Any suggestions how this can be accomplished most easily? Regards ... Alec Basically the same problem as Dionysis Theodorou above.

I have managed to transfer all my contacts by following the export-import function in gmail and have forwarded all my incoming mails to the new address. I have not yet found a way though to transfer all my archived mail from my old gmail accounts to my new one. I read something you had written; however, it referred to transferring from outlook and not from gmail to gmail. Can archived e-mails be transferred from one gmail account to another? What would really wrap the process up nice and neatly would be the possibilty of transferring all the labels together with the archived emails from one gmail account to another. Can this be done? Thanks for you help. Dionysis Nicosia, Cyprus September 13th 2007

Hi Zoli,

I recently opened a new gmail account–my old one was much too long and difficult to hand out over the phone.

I have managed to transfer all my contacts by following the export-import function in gmail and have forwarded all my incoming mails to the new address.

I have not yet found a way though to transfer all my archived mail from my old gmail accounts to my new one. I read something you had written; however, it referred to transferring from outlook and not from gmail to gmail. Can archived e-mails be transferred from one gmail account to another?

What would really wrap the process up nice and neatly would be the possibilty of transferring all the labels together with the archived emails from one gmail account to another. Can this be done?

Thanks for you help.

I have the save in sent folder option unchecked, but I still get a bunch of redirects saved as copies in my sent folder. Also about 15% of the emails I try to redirect, especially when done in bulk give the error "mail server sent and incorrect greeting". Does anyone else have issues with this?

You can make a filter that directs any mail arriving directly to your gmail account instead of your 'normal' account back to your normal account. This way you can receive email on your (archive) gmail or normal email, while keeping them in sync. e.g. Matches: to:(yourarchiveaccount@gmail.com) Do this: Forward to your@owndomainemail.com, Apply label "DirectlyToGmail" It is not required to have a separate archive gmail account.
