I use Apple Mail and I have a work account on Exchange/Office 365 that I use through Apple Mail. I do NOT have the Exchange password, I am not the administrator. Is there a way for me to archive or download all the emails (to a .OLM or .PST file?) and then import them to a Gmail account?
Bottom Line: I want my Exchange emails exported to a Gmail account.
Thanks for any suggestions!
There are two places in Mail preferences you should look at.
In the make sure you do NOT have selected send from Account of Selected Mailbox, but have the Account of your choice selected.
Again check your settings here, and once you have selected the right account then check the use only this account.
This you have to repeat for each account.
I turned off all "Show in IMAP" label settings in the Gmail web console.
I then added back only "All Mail." I restarted Mail.app and reenabled the account. Mail started normally and my email was available.
I still would like to know the source of the issue, but for now the problem is resolved.

If you don't own the account login details, you've picked the best solution, this would be to set up a rule forwarding all new emails to your Gmail email.
Any Mail Client, including Apple Mail, app needs log credentials to establish the connection. So to be able to use Gmail as client app for your Exchange account, you will either have
For the older emails, you can export them in .pst and upload that to Gmail but that's rather desktop operation. I think this should help.
