    Still using my gmail from the early days. Would like to use iCloud but switching would cause a lot of pain I feel. So many accounts using this address. Nowadays I use apples generated email addresses but even those redirect to the gmail address so…

      but can’t you just redirect all the google stuff to apple mail and then change the mail for every important service?

      It’s like moving when you ask the postal service to send your stuff to your new adress, so you won’t lose anything

        That would be possible. It just wouldn’t change a lot in my case. Mails would still be on the Google server or at least processed by them if I’d delete them after redirecting. And I don’t use the gmail client but spark. Moving would just be for the sake of the data not being in googles hands anymore.

        Maybe I’ll just have to plan in some time on the weekend and go through all of my services…

        Edit: sry didn’t read properly. Yes I could redirect an then move.
