# How to forward a contact form in Shopify to a different email with Gmail filters

1. Send an email to yourself from the form that you want to forward
2. Go to your email and find the message that was just sent from the form. Look for the "Form Location" in the email body.

3. Copy and paste the full text that you find there into the gmail filter you create:

4. Click "Create Filter" and then choose the settings to forward to another email:

5. Save that filter and test! You might find that the first time it forwards, it ends up in spam, so we recommend whitelisting "<mailer@shopify.com>" to ensure it comes through.
