Gmail Question

[Etienne]

Hi,

I use Gmail for my Stealth account and the address automatically forwards email to my Personal email address.

If I opened the email that forwards from Gmail in my personal email will this link back to eBay at all?

No. There's zero chance of that happening. All Gmail emails are rerouted through Google servers before delivery so eBay cannot possibly see your IP by you viewing their emails.

Yep only problem with gmx and mail dot com is that there is no free forwarding.

Is your personal email also GMAIL? If so, I wouldn't worry.

There's nothing to worry about either way since both the sending and receiving IP's are changed when the email from eBay is routed through gmail on the way to OP's personal email. By the time the email is delivered to the account it's forwarded to it no longer has anything to do with eBay, because even the images within it have been rehosted by gmail.
