How to Import Your Yahoo! Mail Messages and Contacts Into Gmail

  • If you have previously imported mail, click Import from another address.
  • Type your Yahoo! Mail address under What account do you want to import from?.
  • Click Continue.
  • Enter your Yahoo! Mail password under Enter the password for example@yahoo.com:.
  • Click Continue.
  • Make sure Import contacts and Import mail are checked.
  • To have messages that arrive at your Yahoo! Mail address automatically appear in your Gmail inbox for a month, check Import new mail for next 30 days.
  • Optionally, check Add label to all imported mail:.
  • This label lets you easily spot all imported mail in one place. You can always remove the label from individual messages later or delete it altogether.
  • Messages imported from Yahoo! Mail folders other than your Inbox will automatically get a label derived from the folder name. All mail imported from your Yahoo! Mail "Clients" folder will bear the "Migrated/Clients" label after import, for example.
  • Mail in your Drafts, Trash and Spam folders will not be imported.
  • All messages and contacts will of course still be available in Yahoo! Mail after the import has finished.
  • Click Start import.
  • Click OK
