POP & IMAP Support
Postdirect continuously retrieves your emails from any POP or IMAP server and delivers them to your Gmail account.
Real-time Forwarding
Messages from IMAP mailboxes are delivered to Gmail in real-time, no need to click anything or install a browser plug-in.
Guaranteed Forwarding
All emails retrieved from your configured mailboxes are guaranteed to be added to your Gmail mailbox.
Worry-free Solution
Postdirect regularly checks your mailboxes for email, and lets you know if something is not working so you don't have to worry.
Security First
Postdirect has no access to emails in your Gmail mailbox, and cannot send emails from your Gmail account.
Works with Gmail Filters
The forwarded emails are processed by Gmail filters as any other emails you receive in Gmail.
Real-time forwarding is a big improvement, especially for email 2FA. I love your product, you have a subscriber for good!
—Nathaniel Mackler, New York
With Gmail ending POP3 fetching from other accounts, I needed a replacement and Postdirect has delivered exactly that. Simple setup, it just works and I don't need to change how I get emails from other accounts.
