Google has announced a new tool for Gmail that will simplify the lengthy process of importing emails and contacts from both big and small competitors including MSN mail, Yahoo Mail and Hotmail.
Now, the new Gmail users can have an easy access to import features through the renamed Accounts and Import tab provided in the Gmail settings. The company has plans to slowly roll out the import feature to its existing mail users also. At present, the import tool supports around 50 email providers. To see the full list, go to Gmail Help.
