That's a good point. I don't suppose there a way of leaving Gmail and bringing your @gmail.com address with you, is there. That was one of the changes that was forced on phone companies years ago to make it easier to move provider.

No, but Google will happily run your gmail address forwarding to your real address. I've been on fastmail for many years now, but I still get the occasional gmail addressed email in my fastmail inbox.

I also use a lot of the other fastmail features, like mail aliases, DNS, and file storage and web site serving. I'm very happy to pay the money.

No, and there is no way to do that since domains are controlled by mx records, not email addresses.
