In general, you just tell them to use your new address, change your online accounts, etc. and for the transition phase, you either forward or, like I did, just have both accounts in your mail app until you’ve reached everyone who needs the new address
I hate that it’s not possible to change your email address easily (or even at all) with some services. Tell me your website backend sucks without telling me your website backend sucks.
The crazy thing is it’s not even banking or finance websites that are ass backwards (as you would expect), it’s other random sites that just for whatever reason don’t have a proper account management.
lol, glad i switched from outlook to protonmail
I’ve heard that you can’t easily search your entire email history with Proton mail. Have you found this to be an issue?
Coming from Gmail the proton search is a lot worse. Not unmanageable, but by far not as good.
You can always go back to basics and use Thunderbird.
Agreed. Like anything else though, I guess we choose between privacy and ease of use these days.
It’s clunky. Filters and tags make some of that easier, but it’s definitely still hard to find stuff.
How did you switch? What about existing email senders like your bank, etc? Are you forwarding your mails?

Same thing I’m doing
You can change your email on websites, and you can keep your outlook account while you’re doing it.
