You can also forward emails from your old Gmail to your new email as a bridge to ensure you don't miss anything.
I would not forward anything from GMail to another email provider. Google is intrusive. They have no reason to know anything about my new email address. But I'm overreacting and that's okay.
Damn now I want to make a third, super-secret email address that I re-forward to. Darn that blasted nosey goog
Just use an alias, it's anyway a good idea to find a provider that lets you create unique aliases for each account.
This is how I do it. I may never stop actually having that gmail account in use due to the number of accounts tied to it, but I at least can use other services going forward without losing tons of stuff.
