This looks more like you'll be able to create an alias of sorts for your current account; since you'll still receive emails intended for your "old" email address, it doesn't really turn the old one off. You could create a filter to sort it out for you but technically it'll still be there.

When I was little my parents referred to a man by his last name, Black. I thought a color couldn’t be called the same. For a few confusing days in preschool, I kept screaming my crayons were missing “the other red.” No idea why I accepted that there were two different reds, but only one Black.

I was working at the US Open and briefly ended up in an elevator with Tyra Banks. We admitted to each other that we knew nothing about tennis nor how it was scored. I’ve since learned. I assume she has, too 🤷

I've noticed something from working with older folks and their technology — some don't seem to grasp the subtle differences between windows-in-focus vs what's in the "background." The ability to quickly recognize where the device wants us to focus is a learned skill.
