[MlMt] mail redirection

Thanks, in this case I did not set up a rule for the Inbox (except now 
for getting rid of all the error messages I currently receive by my 
fault), so I’ll try to contact the IT persons at my institution.

Gmail can be instructed to import emails from a different source (using 
the Accounts and import tab in the Settings), but I checked before 
deleting the Gmail account, and there did not seem to be anything set up 
there. Is it at all possible that a rule set up in Gmail can still be 
active once the Gmail account has been deleted?
