    Two-factor authentication is one of the best things you can do—you can enable it under your account security settings. If anyone tries to log into your Google account, the two-factor authentication system will require extra verification from your cell phone or a separate email address.

    No. You could set this up but following these instructions creates a Google account (that you can use for Google services, including contacts and calendar) but using Gmail for an e-mail on that account requires further steps, including configuring your old e-mail provider to allow Google to send/receive from that e-mail address.

    Turn on automatic forwarding. On your computer, open Gmail using the account you want to forward messages from. In the top right, click Settings. Click Settings. Click the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab. In the "Forwarding" section, click Add a forwarding address. Enter the email address you want to forward messages to.
