For quite a while I have been receiving my own domain's email into Gmail but going into my own hosting I note that the disk space my email mailboxes is using is starting to creep up to the hosting limit.
Question: if I have been downloading (?) my own email into Gmail, can I now delete the emails off my own webmail server, or will it then be deleted forever? I very rarely use my own webmail and "trust" Gmail to archive it all so it won't make a lot of difference if it's not on my webmail.
I'm just unsure whether the email is now duplicated in Gmail basically, allowing me to delete the server copies. I am guessing so but am getting "the fear" when I hover over "delete".
Thanks for any help!
I think the answer from your description is 'yes', but just do a test by deleting a single mail in your hosting then see if it deletes in Gmail. Leave it a day or to to be sure. It's going to depend on how you set up the pickup but I think you are correct
This is exactly what I do to forward domain mail into gmail - yes, safe to delete from your hosting account.
