Do you mean forward all messages that arrive from now on, or do you mean forward all existing messages within a folder?
To forward all messages arriving from now on, you use a rule. To forward all messages within a folder, it is easiest to use the old classic interface (log in at https://classic.fastmail.com) select all messages in the folder and then use the option More -> forward as attachments. If you need more help, clarify which you are trying to do, and we can provide more details. |

Forwarding all messages is very simple. The solution can be found by searching for "forward" or "forwarding" in Fastmail Help, where this is found as the first hit:
https://www.fastmail.com/help/receive/forward.html You must have Settings>Spam Protection set to some level other than Basic to use forwarding. Bill |

Thanks Bill I will check some of the info you have given. I tried to forward to Runbox and eumx. neither would go. I think I will rely on pop3. that works. I really appreciate your help. You have put a lot of effort into this problem.

BritTim...redirect :copy "you@gmail.com"; is good but it redirects all my mail and not from my selected email addresses.
