I have been thinking about moving to Fastmail from Gmail for a long time, as I'm worried that someday an algorithm will suddenly decide that my account should be closed, and as you can't get in contact with a human at Google, this is game over.
To others that have changed provider from Gmail, did you enable forwarding to your new E-mail address? I can't decide if it's a good idea to give Google the new address, or you should just cut the ties even though it makes the shift more troublesome.
- tito 7y ago1. Start now. But don't use @fastmail.com as your email address. Get a personal domain and email address (i.e. me@efiecho.com), and forward it to fastmail. 2. Setup fastmail as the host for me@efiecho.com 3. Have your gmail account forward to me@efiecho.com. When people ask for your email, or you setup a new account, start using me@efiecho.com That way if you later switch away from fastmail (like I did), your email address stays the same, me@efiecho.com.
