How to get emails to go to a NEW email?

[xxJNYxx]

So I am sick of my email address name on gmail so I am getting a new one. Is there anyway to transfer the emails I get on that email to the new one?

For example, I am signed up for twitter and other social sites, so how do I get those emails toe new one? Do I have to change them on these sites manually?

7. You'll receive a message on your new email to confirm once again.
8. In that message you'll see "please click the link below to confirm the request:" Click the link below that message.
9. Go back to the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" on your old gmail account
10. Choose "Forward a copy of incoming mail to:" and select your new email address from the drop-down menu.

You can send an email to yourself on your old account to test it out.
