The usual way of doing this is to define a rule on the email server that forwards emails to a folder with an email alias within alfresco. Security can then be tied down so messages cannot be updated.

Can you set up such rules with gmail?

Thanks a lot for your quick feedback ,

I did some research how we can build

Unfortunately , and before building the rule that will do the auto forward of the gmails to Alfresco server, i faced an issue in the inbound process. I followed the topic "Inbound storage mail " raised in the below URL https://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=19928&start=15 but didn't reach any solution even thought i follow the same configuration made in that topic .

Could you please advice how can i know if the inbound process is working successfully . IS there any document i can rely on related to Alfresco Inbound Configuration including GMAIL ? Your help is highly appreciated
