New address checklist

Moving from an old Gmail to a business address, the risk is the old one: the bank, the tax office and the domain renewal that still write to it. Tick the accounts you have, add your own, and work down a list that puts those first.

1. Which of these do you have?

2. Change them in this order

Why this order

  • Accounts before people. A customer who writes to the old address tries again or calls. A tax notice, a payout problem or a domain renewal reminder doesn't.
  • "Sign in with Google" accounts go to the top of their group. The tool knows you as your Google account, not as an address, so changing the email in its settings may not change how you sign in. Add a password or another way in first.
  • "Tested" means you saw it arrive. Ask for a password reset or a test email and check it reached the new address. A changed setting that still sends to the old one is the miss this list is for.
  • The old address stays open for a year. Yearly things (tax, domain, insurance) only show up once a year, so the 12-month look is the one that finds the last ones.

The four stages in full, with the auto-reply and forwarding settings and their limits: Leaving your old Gmail for a business address without losing mail.

No domain yet?

An email59 mailbox gives you a name at email59.com, read and written in the browser, so quotes stop going out from a personal Gmail. And the old Gmail gets quicker to check once the notifications are gone.
