Gmailify doesn't require a subscription to Yahoo Mail Pro. Before Gmailify launched in 2016, you couldn't send or receive Yahoo Mail messages through your Gmail account without subscribing to Yahoo's premium service.
In the Yahoo Mail login screen, enter your username and password, adjust the permissions, and then select Agree.
In the You've been Gmailified window, select Close.
In Gmail, go to Settings > Accounts and Import to verify that the settings are configured as you intended. By default, Gmail replies to all messages from your Gmail address. To change this setting, go to the Send mail as section and select Reply from the same address the message was sent to.
Return to this screen at any time to unlink your Yahoo Mail account. Select unlink next to your Yahoo Mail address.

You also can import your Yahoo contacts to Gmail.
In the next window, either keep or delete the imported mail from your Yahoo Mail account. Choose the option you want and click Unlink to complete the process.
