Ask HN: How do I get Gmail to display 2 different accounts on one page?
I have two different gmail accounts. One is @gmail.com and the other is a google apps email account. Anybody know how to get both accounts displayed on the same page? (I thought of creating a frame page but I was hoping for something more elegant).
- pvg 17y agoForward from one to the other. Use filters, labels, colours to make the messages visually distinct, by source, if you need to.
- keltex 17y agoI'm trying to keep the accounts separate. So I don't want the emails in one account to go into another.
- ryduh 17y agoUse this idea ^ but add Multiple Inboxes from Gmail Labs. Forward your google app domain emails to your main gmail account and add a filter to apply a tag and remove it from the inbox. Set your top inbox to only show emails with your googleapps tag. It may be enough of a separation for you but you will have to forward all your emails ;(
- Travis 17y agoCouple of different options. There is a FF addon called gmail addon that makes it easy to switch. You could do the "forwarding" route which resends the email to your master account. You can add accounts to your gmail account, which will fetch via IMAP/POP3 all the emails from one to the other. However, the latter 2 options do not keep the accounts separate (although you CAN send email from either account). Why do you want to keep them separate? If it's because they're shared and you want to separate access, I suppose you could create a third gmail account (call it username-master or something) which would fetch from BOTH your current existing accounts, without muddying either of them as they are.
