Does your old account have POP or IMAP?
Does your new account have IMAP? Does your new account allow you to pop external mailboxes? |

Which Yahoo are you using, eg @yahoo.com, @yahoo.ca, @yahoo.co.uk, @yahoo.co.au?
Is it a Free or Paid account? I don't think that any of the Free Yahoos offer imap. You can get forwarding or pop with some of the others. Or you have the option of fowarding incoming mail. I haven't heard that Free yahoo.com has either pop or forwarding. I used to see posts about programs that would pop yahoo.com mailboxes, but these would have to be installed on your computer. But, from the nature of your question I guess that you do not have your own computer. GMail cannot pop other accounts at this time. There is a thread about automatically popping an account and forwarding the messages ... http://www.emaildiscussions.com/...threadid=37910 But you just want a one-time mass forwarding. So maybe someone else has a suggestion. Before you pop your Yahoo mailbox, make sure that the method you use leaves the mail on the server. Just in case you have to try again. |
