Auto forward email messages from Gmail to any other email address. Just create a search rule and the addon will automatically bulk-forward all matching email messages to any address. You can forward old emails as well.
Works with:
106K+
Overview
Gmail's built-in email forwarder imposes several limitations. It only lets you forward messages to an email address that you have verified earlier. You cannot create a filter inside Gmail and auto-forward emails to addresses that are not owned by you.

You cannot forward old email threads in Gmail and it doesn't support bulk forwarding. You cannot select multiple messages inside Gmail and forward them all to another address in a single step. You'll have to forward them manually, one by one.

Email Forwarder for Gmail is a Google Sheets add-on that gets around all these limitation. Here you can create a forwarding rule, just like Gmail filters, except that you are not required to verify the forwarding address. You can forward to any valid email address. 

The Gmail add-on supports bulk email forwarding as well. You can apply a common Gmail label to all email messages that you wish to forward to another address and then create a rule, with the add-on, that will forward all these labeled message to any other email address.

And unlike Gmail that can only forward new and incoming email, the Gmail Forwarder add-on can auto-forward both past and future email messages. 

The premium edition of the Gmail Forwarder lets you create unlimited rules for auto-forwarding email messages, it runs faster (every 15 minutes) and you have a higher mail sending limit.  

Email Forwarder (Free Edition) - 1 Forwarding Rule, 20 emails per day, Runs once per hour
Email Forwarder (Premium) for Gmail Accounts - Unlimited Rules, 100 emails per day, Runs every 15 minutes
Email Forwarder (Premium) for G Suite - Unlimited Rules, 1500 emails (Google Suite for Work), Runs every 15 minutes

Google will automatically reset your daily quota around 1 PM PST.

If you are experiencing any problem or issues, go to the Add-on -> Email Forwarder menu and choose Restart. If that doesn't solve the issue, please send the Debug Logs from the same menu.

Update: The addon's functionality is now available on the web at https://emailstudio.pro - please update!

This software can be a nightmare. Its resent emails 100's of times saving large emails in my sent , then erroring out and starts again. It created over 5GB mail resent and flooded my solicitor with repeat emails causing me all sorts of issues. I reported the problem and still after 3 days no response. I have asked for a full refund ad this is not fit for purpose. I will let everyone know how successful I am getting a proper response from this developer.

Hello Admin, I really like this app but forwarding emails are showing on Sent messages and i don't want that. If i forward my emails via Gmail forward service then its not showing on sent mails. Please let me know if there is any way to delete sent mail once mails are forwarded. And if possible please reply me at michaelcashadvanceteam@gmail.com Thank you.

yes this works but the limit of 20 emails make this add on all but useless. I realize the limit is to encourage people to purchase the upgrade but $29.99 is $20.00 more than I am willing to pay. If this app was less than $9.99 I would give it 5 stars and I believe hundreds of people would buy the app at a more appealing price

I used this extension to forward about 600 emails from my work gmail account to my personal gmail account. It was a difficult situation because I was unable to download the emails into desktop software like Mail or Thunderbird, and my company had disabled the Google data backup/downloading options. Email Forwarder to the rescue! It worked great once I got the hang of it. I was only able to forward 50 messages at a time. I had success when I unchecked "forward full conversations" and re-ran the rule every five minutes manually until all of the messages had been forwarded. The extension leaves a "forwarded" tag on all the messages in the inbox. On my personal email account, I set up a filter to manage all the incoming forwarded mail. Amit, the developer, is very responsive and helpful. Thanks for a very much needed extension!

Excellent little script that works as advertised. Author also responded promptly and helpfully to my query. The one flaw is that it separates messages in a thread, so for a thread with let's say 10 messages, you'd receiving 10 individual emails at the other end. Apparently there is no way to preserve the conversation as a single email thread.

I tested this for sent mails, and realized this create a loop in my receiving email account whereby same emails have been forwarded again and again because of configure the sender email address under the label. It will be perfect if this can be resolved. Another clarification is for google at work user will have up to 1,500 mails being forwarded? or still need to buy this add ons?

Just a handful of emails per day? You're not serious. I've tried to forward a large amount of emails, but it allowed me to do just 20. I could have done it manually spending less time it required me to install the addon and read the manual. It teases me into paying for the premium version, promising to forward 80 emails more every day! Man, it's not uncommon for me to respond to 100 or 150 emails per day - why pay for the robot whose performance is less than mine?

Loaded and worked exactly as stated. Easy to configure. I have not upgraded yet; might be worth it. My main motivation was certain emails that were old and I wanted to forward, which gmail cannot do in bulk or via a filter.
