Wait, what's the point of doing this? If you forward to gmail and then your gmail account suddenly gets a lockdown, what did you gain? Shouldn't you do it the other way round, forward all gmail to your own mail server and then only use that one?
- lccarrasco 8y agoIf you forward to Gmail then you can still receive mails to the other service should Google disable your account, if you do it the other way you're screwed.
- iforgotpassword 8y agoI see.. I was thinking along the lines of migrating away from google and having the forwarding in place for contacts that didn't update your address yet. Or that couple of services you use but forget about. So you can slowly move everything to the new address over time.
