Hii

Currently I have two email accounts one at Gmail and another at my workplace. I route the email from my workplace so that everything arrives at Gmail. However because I frequently send and receive large files, my gmail account is rapidly filling up. I was thinking of downloading one copy of the email that comes to Gmail and to my work email, on my hard drive using microsoft outlook 2010. I have the professional plus version.

So I was wondering if there is a way to download the email coming from gmail and my work email onto my hard drive and store it somewhere using outlook as a background service. I don’t want to be continuously opening outlook for the mail to arrive on my computer or getting distracted by emails popping up on my computer. I can then create the necessary labels/folders and let it be. Then I can delete the large files on Gmail without having to worry that I might need that in future.

If there is any other free software that can do this that would be great too.

Thanks

You can use Outlook to access multiple email accounts like Gmail as well as your work email. But, Outlook needs to be started before it will send or receive new mail.

As far as I know with out outlook or something like it you cant do that, there should be a medium through which you get mail in your pc inbox, It will be asking for you permission too.

Better option would be use outlook and give it some storage area and make different folders in INBOX.....rest outlook wil do for you......

You can check config setting at
