@maique Hey Maique. I have a boring email question for you, if you don't mind ... you mentioned that you use Fastmail, but forward it all to HEY to manage things there. What do you do with the emails that are forwarded? Do you just leave everything in the Fastmail inbox? Or do you delete / archive them? This sounds like an interesting idea, but I assume Fastmail is then filled up with various useless emails over time, if you leave or archive them?

@andyn Hey. No such thing as boring questions.
I leave them alone. Archiving them would be the easier (and logically thing to do, but I forgot that one. Maybe I’ll fix it, thanks. Deleting, as in bulk deleting, wouldn’t work. I enjoy HEY, but what if I stop subscribing one day? I’d like to still access the emails that I got.

@maique Thanks so much! So for now you just leave it all in your inbox and would just manage it directly there if and when you left HEY? To be fair Fastmail seem to give you a huge amount of storage (I'm at 18GB usage with Gmail that I've had going since day 1) so storage is unlikely to ever be an issue.

@andyn That is correct. The one thing I had to do, truth be told, is get my spam protection level down a bit on Fastmail. Some emails were getting caught, and not forwarded to HEY. HEY also has very capable spam protection, so it works.. From time to time I’ll go check, and empty the spam folder. Storage is controlled, I just checked: 6.1GB of 50GB.

@maique Awesome, thanks very much indeed. This solution may let me get all of my various accounts into one system (Fastmail) but still let me 'play' with using something a little more fun as well, so I'll give it a shot. Thank you!

@andyn That was my reasoning. I did go back to Fastmail, with a setup that tried to mimic HEY, but came back. I like it a lot, but loved that I could use different clients to manage my Fastmail account (even though their “app" is very nice). HEY is mostly another client. I do use their email, but it’s a client I like.
