In future you can't use the google email servers to send email that doesn't originate from gmail.
Sounds like a reasonable thing in theory. In practice, if you have a personal domain name, then you won't be able to setup gmail to send as if it's from your own domain (unless you also buy the email service of your domain host).

That's a bit shit. Sort it out Gaywood.

Put your email on a Google Apps Business account. Sorted.

Now they have all your personal data they can start reducing the features they provide you for free. Classic Google.

That's a bit of a bugger. Will have to decide what to do about my gmail/dr zoidberg email combo.
Looks like I can still do it with an Outlook.com address

If you already have it setup, it won't stop working, but you can't create any new aliases.

Just run your own SMTP server, slackers.

:this: In all seriousness. I tried to get along with Gmail, but it never clicked with me. Also, my outlook email address is nicer.
