Gmail: Google launches option to change email address in Germany

▤ Summary

Google is rolling out a Gmail option in Germany that lets users change the username part of an existing @gmail.com address. The old address remains attached to the account as an alias, so mail to the original address still arrives in the same inbox and login continues to work. Google is limiting the feature with a 12-month lockout after each change and a maximum of three changes overall. The rollout is gradual, so users in Germany may see the option appear later in their account settings.
