I'm considering switching (in fact I just registered for the FastMail trial). I'm especially interested in the ability to use catchall addresses with a custom domain, which would allow me to give out an address like <[email protected]>, and thus determine who shared my email address if I start receiving spam at that address.

This is partly possible with Gmail, as you can use addresses like <[email protected]>, but not all sites support emails with a + in them.

What differences have you noticed in your year since switching? I'm especially interested in any downsides. My biggest worry about Gmail is the lack of privacy from Google.
