Way to check several email addresses at once?

jimimi

Hi

Is there any (free!) way of checking all your emails in one place. I ask because I've got 3 yahoo addresses. Or if not, does anyone know if you can close a yahoo account?

Thanks

Sam

Use forwarders? Two not main email accounts get forwarded to main one.

Or use Outlook/Thunderbird/Live etc to check seperately but leave mail on server... or use another provider gmail etc to check serveral accounts.

you can set yahoo to forward to one email address

just set up the three mail accounts in your mail program, and set it to include all of them for send/receive. I do this with 2 addys in outlook express, get al mail into inbox, regardless of which it was sent to - to see which it was sent to, just read the "to" line

I've got 5 email addresses that I check,

I forward them all to a Gmail account, I've got it set up so I can reply as the email address not just my gmail addy.

Similar to SOlitaire,

I have one dedicated Gmail address which collects all the Yahoo,Tiscali etc addresses I've picked up over the years which I use for sign ups.

GMX.com is a free email service which has a feature where it will collect mail from other accounts and stick it in one inbox.

Unlike GMail, it doesn't read your messages to suggest ads you'd like to see nor have occassional glitches where your emails are open to world and dog.

I use a firefox plugin for gmail accounts

Not sure if there is one for yahoo but you can always forward to new gmail accounts

I would advise against you using any web based account to collect/reply all of your mails, because if that one is compromised then it could mean all of them are then compromised. Forwarding is one option if available but why not use Thunderbird, it's free and I use it for all my many accounts, and set up filters on each one to sort spam, specific senders, and the rest to go to a local inbox including setting up tags so I can see which box it came from.

Seconding Thunderbird. I have 5 email accounts configured in it. It lets you have one inbox view showing all message, and you can then expand this into individual inboxes so you can see which messages are in which inbox.

Then again, I can't stand webmail, so I'm biassed
