===Setting up Gmail to forward calls to Active911 alert email addresses===

====Setting your forwarding address====
# Open up your Gmail account. 
# Click on the gear icon in the upper right hand corner. In the drop-down menu, select the ''Settings'' option.
# Once the Settings page has been pulled up, select the tab that says ''Forwarding and POP/IMAP''.
# Select ''Add a forwarding address''. In the window that opens, please type in you Active911 alert email address found on the ''Agency'' tab of your Active911 Member Access area. 
# When you have added this address, it will send a confirmation code to your Active911 account; you will need to enter this confirmation code into the Gmail settings ''Forwarding and POP/IMAP'' tab and select ''Verify''.

'''''You have added your forwarding address, but now need to create a filter to direct your dispatch calls to that address.'''''

====Setting the filters====
# Go to the ''Filters and Blocked Addresses'' tab in the Gmail account settings page.
# Select ''Create a new filter'' from the bottom of the page. 
# Here you define the search criteria for your new filter. If you are forwarding a dispatch related email that is coming from a static email address, just enter that email address into the ''From'' field.
# After entering the desired search fields, select the link in the bottom right hand corner of the screen, ''Create filter with this search >>''.
# This is where you specify what you want Gmail to do with the filtered messages. To forward this message, select the box for ''Forward it to:'' and then choose your Active911 alert email address. 
# Once you have all the options you would like selected (forwarding, labeling, deleting, etc), click ''Create filter''.
# This will take you back to the ''Filters and Blocked Addresses'' tab where you can view and edit these filters anytime you wish.

'''''When a call comes in from the email address you specified, it will be forwarded on to your Active911 account for distribution to the devices on the roster.'''''
