Setup the forwarding addresses
In Gmail
Click on the cogwheel icon to access the settings and click on See all settings.
Choose the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab
Click on the Add a forwarding address button
Enter the email address of your Datamolino folder and follow the steps on screen
A confirmation code will be sent to the Datamolino folder email address. You will need to enter this code to confirm the forwarding address. This will allow you to forward emails to this address based on filters.

Repeat these steps for all the Datamolino folders where you wish to forward emails based on filter criteria
Setup the forwarding criteria using filters
To setup the filters click on the filters icon in the search bar on the top of the screen
Set the criteria based on which you would like to forward emails to Datamolino for processing. Consider the following
Specific supplier email address (this will forward all emails from this address)
Subject (You can filter based on words such as "Your receipt ...")
Attachment (forward only emails with attachments)
Or a combination of these filters
You can test if you are getting the correct emails filtered by doing a search first.
If you have already setup the forwarding address you can choose it in the dropdown menu.
Choose the forwarding address
Check the box to make sure the emails are forwarded
In the Gmail settings in the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab you can now see the newly setup forwarding rule.
Here you can edit or delete it
