# Add your Mailbox via Forwarding

{% endhint %}

Replyco can pull messages from your email account so all of your messages are in one centralized location. This is ideal for any role-based accounts (info@) that multiple users will need access to. 

Reading your email accounts can be done in 1 of 2 ways: 

1. **Forwarding.** You configure your current mailbox to forward messages to the Replyco email address we provide. Everything that is being sent to this Replyco-generated specific email address, will be displayed in Replyco.
2. [**SMTP**](/main-sections/adding-accounts/email-accounts/add-your-mailbox-via-custom-smtp-settings.md)**.** We will connect to your email server directly and use IMAP/POP protocols for receiving the emails and SMTP for sending them on your behalf when you reply via Replyco.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**WARNING:** If you are adding an email address that is already receiving notifications from an integration, you could be duplicating the number of tickets coming into the system.
{% endhint %}

Click on **+ Add Integration** at the top right of the app.

Select **Email** from the list of integration options.

**Enter your email address to integrate** - this should be the email address of the mailbox you are going to integrate into Replyco.

**Send Name as** - this is the name your recipients will see when you will send outcoming messages via Replyco. Here is an example of what it looks like in Gmail:

**Add a custom icon** - is an option that allows you to upload your own icon instead of a standard one:<br>

### Set Up a Forwarding Rule

In a separate window, log in to your **Email Host** to configure **Forwarding and POP/IMAP.**&#x20;

When prompted, paste the address you **copied from Replyco.** It may look something like this:

![Create a rule to forward the correspondence to Replyco-generated email address](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/3RaOiEn8y8D_-e3G1miiN76q8ny0-87mYW1FlAgVlU9wpk_7sQRch3-F2XO4C5z5ZL6GYuO57viVrm5ctJujwEka1GKRRs34b_kMIasIMT_1Xc8mlQaqH-Anw2DvnDny-72BO7CYVN892oBzjQ)

* Return back to the **Replyco page**, click **Authorize** to complete.

### All Done!

Once you passed all the steps, click the Finish button.

### VIEW / EDIT

To see Integrations that have already been added, go to **Admin > Integrations.**

![Click Admin => Integrations](/files/kKGbwPMYbGSgbJNHBvF8)

A list will show the Source, Synchronization Status, Account, Name, Date for Last Messages Synced, and Last Orders Synced.

* A :green\_circle:**green status** means that the Integration **IS** configured correctly.
* A :red\_circle:**red status** means the integration is **NOT** configured correctly.
