If you're looking to consolidate your email the best way is imapfilter https://github.com/lefcha/imapfilter I use this LUA script (this is the Jinja2 template so obviously you'll need to substitute the portions in {{ }} with your real values. It runs on an hourly cronjob on my server and sucks down all the mail from Gmail and another account and then puts it in my main inbox via IMAP (not forwarding) so you don't have to worry about opportunistic transport encryption. It also does not mess with the headers which forwarding emails invariably does.

      -- GMAIL
      -- Gmail behaves differently to normal imap. With a normal imap acccount
      -- you can simply use move_messages(). Google stores both inbox
      -- and sent email in the "[Gmail]/All Mail" folder. An email sent to yourself
      -- from the same email address exists as a single email and is visible in
      -- the Inbox and Sent box. If you delete the inbox mail then the sent mail
      -- is also deleted. Thus it is only safe to delete mail once both the Inbox
      -- and Sent box is copied.

      -- Only go ahead and copy inbox/sent/spam from gmail if I have received
      -- some Inbox email.
      if (gmail['Inbox']:check_status() > 0) then

          -- Only clear the All Mail folder if we were successful in moving
          -- our Inbox and Sent mail. Note: move_messages is supposed to return
          -- booleans for copying the messages and then marking them as deleted.
          -- For some reason the mark for deletion return value is 'nil'.
