Gmail to Dropbox

I’ve read the website help on setting up email and looked through the forum, but am having problems as a newbie in understanding how to move Gmail messages to the dropbox.  Wish there was a more comprehensive help document including coverage of this; will appreciate further tips and direction from the community.


I created a filter in Gmail to tag new messages and forward them to my dropbox.  That piece is working fine.

With that filter I had also asked for historical emails to be tagged and forwarded, but nothing got sent over.  In the S360 webmail, there doesn’t appear to be any drag and drop functionality.  At least I haven’t been able to drag any of the Gmail folders into the dropbox.

So, how do you move a bulk amount of prior email so that it all links to your contacts and companies?

My next filter for sent mail doesn’t work at all.  I tried setting a filter that when a message is sent from me, Gmail tags it and forwards.  How do you set this part up?

All help appreciated; thank you!

If you enable and configure Solve’s Webmail feature (Workspace > Add-ons) you can drag n’ drop (or right-click > move) historical messages from Gmail into a Solve360 dropbox where they will automatically be linked to corresponding pages.  Adding a rule won’t forward existing messages I suspect.

Sending is a bit trickier, currently the options are to add the BCC to the outgoing message manually, enable a grease-monkey script http://norada.com/forums/viewthread/1440/ , or wait until Google supports a contextual gadget at compose time (planned I understand).

Yes, the S360 email client is enabled and I can drag and drop individual messages.  But let’s say I’d like to import all Gmail or only certain tags (folders) - these aren’t dragging and dropping for me.  Is there an easy way to get lots of email connected into S360?

A bulk load of email is not currently possible through the application itself.

Essentially such a task would take a transfer of potentially GBs of data between systems.
