I think you're misunderstanding what they're saying though I admit
that I made the same mistake at first.
What they're saying is that if you connect the gmail app to a third
party account (so directly to yahoo or microsoft or whatever) then it
will still work, but you won't be able to connect it to google and then
use a third party address.

Looking at the Google announcement, it seems like the change is limited
to the Gmail web client.
The feature is still available to Gmail Mobile and to IMAP clients
(eg. Thunderbird, elm)

Hi,
A colleague recently made me aware of a pending change in GMail that
affects how I send email to Fedora mailing lists.
Fedora documents this here:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/commops/gmail-alias/ <https://
docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/commops/gmail-alias/>
GMail documents this feature here: https://support.google.com/mail/
answer/22370 <https://support.google.com/mail/answer/22370>
The notice of the change is documented here:
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/17101213 <https://
support.google.com/mail/answer/17101213>
I am very irritated by this change, since I depend on this feature to
be able to send to the Fedora mailing lists using my
@fedoraproject.org <http://fedoraproject.org> email address (or
using my @apache.org <http://apache.org> email for
ASF lists).
Does anybody else depend on this? Does anybody have any good
alternative solutions?
Thanks,
Christopher
