Introduction
Ever found yourself in a situation where you need to forward multiple emails in Gmail, but can’t figure out how? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Gmail doesn’t provide a straightforward way to forward multiple emails at once. But with a few tricks, you can get the job done. In this tutorial, we’ll guide you through the process step by step.
Method 1: Using Gmail’s Built-in Feature
Gmail has a built-in feature that allows you to forward an entire conversation, which can include multiple emails. Here’s how you can do it:
- Open the conversation you want to forward.
- Click on the three-dot menu icon on the top right corner of the email.
- Select “Forward all”.
This will create a new email with all the emails in the conversation included. You can then enter the recipient’s email address and click “Send”.
Method 2: Using a Google Script
If you need to forward multiple emails that are not part of the same conversation, you can use a Google Script. Here’s how:
- Go to Google Scripts.
- Click on “New script”.
- Copy and paste the following script:
function forwardEmails() {
var label = GmailApp.getUserLabelByName('LabelName');
var threads = label.getThreads();
for (var i = 0; i < threads.length; i++) {
var messages = threads[i].getMessages();
for (var j = 0; j < messages.length; j++) {
messages[j].forward('recipient@example.com');
}
}
}
- Replace 'LabelName' with the name of the label that contains the emails you want to forward.
- Replace 'recipient@example.com' with the email address you want to forward the emails to.
- Click on the disk icon to save the script.
- Click on the play icon to run the script.
This script will forward all the emails with the specified label to the specified email address. Please note that you need to have the necessary permissions to run Google Scripts.
Conclusion
And there you have it! Two methods to forward multiple emails in Gmail. Whether you're using Gmail's built-in feature or a Google Script, you can now forward multiple emails with ease. Remember, managing your emails efficiently can save you a lot of time and hassle. Happy emailing!
