I have several domains with dynadot all using dynadot's name servers and email forwarding to forward from certain emails to my gmail address. I recently purchased a domain name from an international registrar (.tt) which does not offer this feature so I was wondering how it works so I could set up something similar on my own server. Most support I find about email forwarding to gmail involves setting up a smarthost which requires setting up certificates and having the server login to gmail using my credentials. I know this isn't the case with dynadot's email forwarding as I never had to give it my gmail credentials.

You would need to set up a mail server, for example, qmail is a good one. You could then set the MX records for the domain to point to the qmail server. Once you do that, you can set up email forwarding in qmail.

Thanks. That makes sense.

Happy to help!
