Open a gmail account. Forward all your email to it. In Gmail settings set up your reply preferences to use your current email address. Use the Inbox by Gmail app and/or web page. You'll never want to use any other email app again.

Only caveat to forwarding is that you need to log into the old account now and again so that the provider doesn't close it as inactive.

Ugh! Can't stand gmail but I would choose it over the email app in Win 10.

I hate it too. I've been using Outlook.com which is far better. But the new "Inbox by Gmail" app is excellent and makes email a piece of cake.

I don't know about forwarding as I never do that, but I download email (via POP) from several email accounts to my gmail account with no problem. Downloading via POP does login to the account though.

As to strollin hating gmail, I am just the opposite. I prefer it to any other email client I have used.

As far as the subject of this thread, I don't know if the OP is referring to Windows folders or Email client folders but gmail does allow "folders" but they are called "labels". I am a big user of labels in gmail.

That works for adding an account to a phone or tablet but for some reason the "Inbox by Gmail" app doesn't work with external POP or IMAP accounts. That's why I had start forwarding my email to my gmail account.


Here's a link to "Inbox by Gmail"
