I am considering switching from google mail to iCloud and am curious about your opinions.

I know there will be a lot of accounts I would have to change my email in, but most of my important accounts already have email addresses from apples „hide my mail“ function, so I am willing to do that work. And for the rest an automatic email forwarding will do.

A few questions are already in my mind, maybe someone can answer them for me:

  • Will my 2TB iCloud be used for my emails? Or would I need an additional subscription?

  • Is it possible to migrate all my mails from gmail to iCloud without any third party tools?

  • And to everyone already using a iCloud email as primary mail account -> What are your experiences so far? Any problems?

    What’s interesting is that Gmail acts the same way with google drive. I once had a woman who hadn’t received an email in over a year because she stuffed her gmail drive full of photos.

      Pretty sure Gmail starts deleting old emails in this case?

        You’re probably right about that. This inbox had more venereal diseases than an old west brothel. I wonder if it was outpacing this feature?

          I would rather not think about how much spam that email was getting if it was indeed outpacing Gmail’s auto delete 💀
