5. Click Next,  Proceed  OK.

6. A verification message will be sent to that address. Click the verification link in that message.

7. Go back to the settings page for the Gmail account you want to forward messages from, and refresh your browser.

8. Click the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.

9. In the "Forwarding" section, select Forward a copy of incoming mail to (your chosen email address).

10. Choose what you want to happen with the Gmail copy of your emails. Once you have verified that email is forwarding as expected, it is recommended that you choose delete IEEE mail's copy.  This will ensure that you do not go over the 5GB storage limit.
