Transfer Thunderbird email accounts

Question

Hello,

I regularly work from home, and we use Thunderbird at work; I would like to know if there is a way to automatically forward all emails sent to my work email (Thunderbird) to my personal email in my absence.

Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance!

Great, thanks!

A little explanation for those who might have the same question:

In Thunderbird:
- Tools -> Message Filters -> New
- Give your filter a name (for example "Automatic email forwarding - remote work"; check the box "validates all conditions for filters and virtual folders"
- "Perform these actions": select "forward the message to" and type on the right the email address of your choice.
- You will see the list of your filters, including the one you just created; click "run" and check the box "active"

That's it, all your emails will be redirected to the email address of your choice. Don't forget to check the box before you leave for remote work and upon your return, unless you want everything to be systematically forwarded! I clarify that messages are forwarded and not deleted from your professional email.

Hello everyone and thank you!

Hello, try the imap function as it allows you to read your emails in a synchronized manner see: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol

Does the PC need to stay on with your method?

No idea, I have to admit. I haven't taken the test since yesterday, but it's true that it's worth asking the question... :-/

..the PC must be turned on, and especially your email client launched, in this case Thunderbird....otherwise how do you expect the filters to work...!!!  @+ pasthou

That's what it seemed to me anyway, computers are rarely turned off in companies, a shame for the planet.

Hello everyone, As of today, this manipulation is still functional. But additionally, is it possible to delete the emails at the source?
