gmail It is for many of us the service from where we manage many important messages such as work, studies and other highly relevant issues and taking into account that it is very possible that we have accounts registered in other services such as Yahoo Mail, Outlook, AOL and several others e-mail services in certain circumstances we will need to centralize all our contacts, that is, to integrate our main account that is in gmail to be able to manage all our contacts, messages sent and received from a single page and that is why there is the option to set up account and further import mail and contacts from other mail services.
Next we will see how we can do this account settings which basically allows us to perform two actions although in reality it is possible to configure various details of our account but in this case we will see only how to configure an account and import mail and contacts above all. To begin we log into our Gmail account and then we open the configuration link, among the various options that exist we choose "configuration" as we see in the image.
We will see the configuration page, to do this in particular we select the tab «accounts and import«, The first options allow us to edit data such as the password as well as the password recovery options and Google account settings, the next option focuses especially on what we are looking for in this article, which is to import mail and contacts into Gmail for which we select the respective link, a window will open and then we must enter the electronic address of the account that we want to import as it can be my account @ hotmail For example, this will allow us to import contacts from the account we have in Hotmail.
We must take into account the instructions that are indicated in the Gmail window in order to start with the import of mail and contacts, to confirm the import we must log in to our email account from which we want to import this information. To proceed with this action we must review the terms and conditions of use of the service and Privacy Policy of Shuttlecloud and also take into account that when importing the information will not be encrypted, if we agree with the conditions we can start with the process in question.
