Multiple gmail inboxes going to 1 master gmail inbox?

If I connect multiple gmail inboxes to one master gmail inbox through Google's "Send Mail As" feature, will all inbound emails and replies from all connected gmails go to the master inbox?

    Nope, that's just sending - you need to either set up POP retrieval in the master GMail to pull in from those other accounts (enablign POP on those accounts, naturally), or to have each of those other accounts configured to forward their mail to your 'master' account.

    The former is 'more correct' (inasmuch as email headers etc are retained) the latter is often quicker but will add headers showing the email forwarding which has occured.

    Use POP to collect emails into the master account. But then in the master account set up filters to add a label for each email based on the To: address. e.g. Jimbox for all email To:jimbox@gmail.com

    That way you can just look at the labels instead of opening each email to see who it was sent To:
