Il Caffettino di Mario Moroni

Google permetterà di cambiare l'indirizzo Gmail, come farlo

·5 min
This episode of Il Caffettino di Mario Moroni covers Google's new functionality to change Gmail addresses. Mario Moroni hosts this daily podcast, focusing on digital, business, and marketing news in under five minutes. He announces that after over 20 years, users can finally alter the part before '@gmail.com', often set as nicknames from the 1990s. The feature was announced in December of the previous year and is now officially launching with a gradual rollout starting in the United States. To change an address, users must log into myaccount.google.com, go to personal information, select email, and make the change, which is allowed once every 12 months. The old address will not be lost but will redirect emails to the new one. However, the rollout timing to Europe and Italy is uncertain, possibly taking weeks to months, with priority likely given to paid enterprise versions. Moroni raises concerns about name availability, as common names like 'Mario Moroni' might already be taken by many users. He notes that many people with unprofessional nicknames may have already created new Gmail accounts. He advises waiting a few weeks after the feature appears to ensure it works properly with social logins and APIs on other sites. Moroni invites listeners to share their experiences but cautions against revealing personal emails for privacy. He mentions his own email is mario-mario-moroni.it for story suggestions or guest recommendations, referencing a successful episode with Albertino. The episode concludes with a reminder to wait before adopting new devices or features and a sign-off until tomorrow.
