This is a nice trick and pretty useful in case you want to move / transfer all your mails from one Gmail ( virtually any mail account which supports IMAP ) account to another. Now you might say you can forward all but  its gonna take time plus it will LOOK like forwarded mails not real.

Another advantage you get with this ( I think that’s possible in just gmail ) that all replied mails for that mail also gets moved . Cool isn’t it . Now the steps on how to do it.

Assumptions:

• You have your mail accounts confgured in outlook using IMAP.
• Your Microsoft Outlook is in Online Mode.

Steps:

• Select a mail from Gmail Account A and drop into any of the folder of Gmail Account B. Make sure you see the mail in Account B Folder.
• Now after the sync is complete , check your Gmail Account B in your browser  and Look for the mail you transferred. It should be there.

Here  are the images:

If you  did notice the mail which is in the picture is the reply I sent and also the mail which was originally sent to me.

It was fun doing it :D and so if you have one such requirement to move all your mails from one account to other, all you need is IMAP enabled and Microsoft Outlook. Have fun!!!
