You should not use Gmail anyway. Privacy issues and security issues. I still have several Gmail accounts. Daily warnings in my Thunderbird (Someone has your password....--- Yes, guess fucker, it is me who has my password).
I have one Gmail account that I can not access anymore besides knowing my password, the previous password and a security question. Unfortunately I have a domain registered with this email. This domain may be lost.<p>Pay a few bucks and get your own email. External email, hosted in Switzerland (high privacy, not EU or US jurisdiction) costs me 15 Euro per year. I can use my own (even external!) domain.
