500 Gmail accounts all forwarding to one address is OK?
 

If I have many many Gmail accounts, is it OK to have ALL forwarded to one email account?

In a past post, someone mentioned having 500 Gmail accounts
I can't remember what they said

Just want to make sure there is no chance of being blocked by Gmail

Thanks

yeah should be fine.

I'm going to err on the side of caution and say, even though it may work today, that may not be the case tomorrow. If Google feel you're abusing their service, they can lock you out of your accounts, and if your "linking" them all together, you give them more reason to do so.

Like I said, it might work, but if it fails, it will tumble like a tonne of bricks.

In theory yes, but 500 would be a hell of a lot. Not sure I would take the risk as Gmail do shut down accounts

thanks for the replies guys
yes, i agree. too much to risk putting all eggs in one basket.
i'm sure there was at least one person who replied to one of my posts who said they had 500 accounts :)

500? I don't ever remember seeing that, and I can't imagine it would fly.

I have maybe 30 forwarding to one, and it makes me nervous.
