This is to show you how to link your webmail to your Gmail. After you link your webmail to your Gmail, all of those emails will route through your Gmail account and will be flagged as originating from your work account. You will also have the ability to reply using the same email so that your recipients will not be aware that the email was sent via Gmail. This configuration will be done from your gmail account.
Note that setting up on your Gmail, you are setting up as an additional account, not the main account since it's not a google email. Also, the configuration is done from a PC and not a phone.
