 ISP email just for ISP missives

I only keep the ISP email for 1 reason: for communications from the ISP. And that I forward to Gmail. I use Gmail for all my communications with friends and family and with vendors. And I keep a Hotmail acct as backup and for throwaway addresses when signing up for web sites where spam may result.

My ISP places all the emails they send to customers on their homepage.

I registered a domain name years ago after playing ISP of the month several times over. If you want to make sure old acquaintances can contact you years later a domain name is cheap insurance.

I also use a free gmail account but with the full knowledge Google could decide to drop it tomorrow (not likely but possible).

I'm surprised email transition has been so rocky. IT departments do this all the time. The low moment was earlier today when Verizon was forwarding mail to FairPoint servers only to have it rejected it as spam. Does not bode well for the future.
