There comes a time when users move from one email provider to another. In this case, if you are an Outlook.com email user and decided to move to another like Gmail, then you should make sure that you are not leaving your Outlook emails unchecked. The best way to do this is to automate and forward emails from Outlook to your current email. Here in this article, we will share two ways to forward emails from Outlook.com.
How To Forward All Emails from Outlook.com to Another Email Address:
1. Sign in to Outlook.com in your web browser and click on the Settings icon in the top right corner.
2. From the Settings drop-down menu, click on View all Outlook settings.
3. In the Settings popup menu, click on Mail > Forwarding.
