1442450 2017-11-28 22:06:00 It doesn't effect me personally but I thought it might be useful to point out you can set up filters and tags in Gmail to make it obvious what mail came from where.

For example I created a "dugimxxx" tag (not really - the real one would be broadcasting my xtra Email address :)) and then set up a filter that uses that tag for anything with my old address in the to field. That way I can glance at my inbox in Gmail and see there are currently 3 E-mails that were sent to my old address. Makes it easier as I try to stop using the old address.

1442452 2017-11-30 23:44:00 what? - you can still send an email? bevy121 (117)
1442453 2017-12-01 01:46:00 I used my gmail and I sent it to my Clear.Net that I didn't set up forwarding - works. I received the test email thru pop.clear.net.nz :D

I am not sure about sending it with smtp.clear.net.nz because in the past it might have not worked so for some time now I just use Yahoo's smtp server. But I can still receive my Clear.Net emails thru their pop server. I didn't enable mail redirection.

1442454 2017-12-01 10:09:00 I got a bill from vodafone today via my vodafone email address. Apparently the @xnet.co.nz service will stay under the umbrella of the Next Generation Services division. R2x1 (4628)
1442455 2017-12-02 02:38:00 2 Dec today 8am still got some emails from my clear.net email addy that wasn't redirected/forwarded :D Maybe it will take some days to kick in. Nomad (952)
1442456 2017-12-02 03:31:00 2 Dec today 8am still got some emails from my clear.net email addy that wasn't redirected/forwarded :D Maybe it will take some days to kick in. Usually take 3 BUSINESS days, so that doesn't include weekends, mine took 4 from memory.

Easy way to tell once its been changed over, the original email will suddenly stop working cant send or receive.Doesn't matter if the original username/password and settings were correct it simply wont work.
