Thanks for the warning, I've been dragging my feet on gmail since it's going to be such a chore to move as I've been using it since beta. IRL I'm a pretty open person and will basically tell you my life story but I don't want Google to act like it knows me because it's snooping all my fucking emails.

Start by initial migration (export/import) and setting up forwarding. Then you can go at your pace updating the email addresses across the services.
Sounds like a good plan, the 2nd part is really the chore, although if I cut it down to the services I actually use I can probably get it done very quickly lol.
This will be incredibly creepy.
