Forwarding gmail to xfinity email

I forward my gmail account to my Xfinity account to make it easier to keep track of (I don't have to log into two different sites to see my email).

I have just discovered that Xfinity is blocking the emails from gmail. I get an error message: see attachment. The link to additional details gives me several pages of suggestions, but nothing that seems immediately helpful.

I saw this question was raised several months ago but it was never resolved.

This is an ongoing issue. Also, I received an email saying this question had been taken down for not being relevant.

deweesl  I know this can be frustrating with not getting emails sent to your Gmail. We can have spam filters blocking messages if you are using an Xfinity.net email address and forwarding your messages to your Gmail. I would check your native Xfinity email at Xfinity.com for your spam filter options there. If not working with your Xfinity email address being sent to your Gmail I would reach out to Gmail support for more help.

@xfinity-Shawn,What is this, a bot reply?  The OP wants to forward mail in the OTHER DIRECTION- from gmail account to Comcast account!  I have the same issue - some of my forwarded mail gets DMARC rejected by Comcast.  There is apparently no solution to that problem, since Comcast won’t relax its DMARC filtering  (even though it was not an problem until six months or so ago), and the forwarder can’t control the SPF or DKIM segments in the forwarded header.  One workaround may be to access the gmail account as a POP download within the Comcast account - or at least while the Comcast inbox is on the screen (using a third party client).  If anyone tries this, please post results.  Thanks.
