Yes. I can prove that this is real. I had a Gmail account that I registered when I was younger and did exactly that - setup a forward to my alt (which over the years became my primary). A few years ago I started receiving emails for another person with my same name. Legit work emails, party invites and the like. Turns out that person was using my original email.

I never contacted anyone about this for fear Google would just delete both accounts to save their own asses.

Still receive those emails to this day.

However recent times have convinced me that it's time to move away from the big ol G. This is space issue is one of them.

mailcow anyone?
