Hello,

I have a standard free Yahoo Mail account with several personal folders and also use the Yahoo calendar.

I would like to move from Yahoo to my gmail account for both my emails as well as my calendar. I recently came across this neat CRM type software called Gist, and that doesn't work with Yahoo Mail.

What's the best way of doing this? I'd like to:
1. Copy my personal folders structure in Yahoo Mail to gmail, so that I have exactly the same personal folders in gmail as I did in yahoo
2. Copy the contents of my personal folders in Yahoo Mail to the respective personal folders in gmail.
3. Copy the entries/events in my Yahoo Calendar to Google Calendar
4. Copy contacts from yahoo email to gmail.

Thanks.

Try this if you haven't already done so.

Sign in to gmail.

Access Settings by clicking the gear symbol on the upper right-hand corner of the page next to your name.

Choose Accounts and Import/Import mail and contacts.

What I did not see was a way to import your calender.

If you use Internet Explorer and the page is wonky disable Compatibility View.
