The Yomiuri Shimbun and others say that a system to carry carrier email addresses issued by mobile phone carriers will start in December. Reported on March 15, NTT DoCoMo and KDDI announced the start in December. In response to the coverage of mobile watch, Softbank also commented that it will be available in December. Survey results have also been announced that the frequency of using carrier emails is on a downward trend, but according to a survey by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, about 20% of respondents said that the reason for not considering switching mobile carriers was "changing email addresses." The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications has been promoting SIM unlocking and expansion of eSIM use, as it is a hurdle when switching mobile operators. After the policy of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications was reported in October 2020, an expert panel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications began examining it in November, and in the report released in May 2021, it was announced one year ahead of schedule. I was looking for a realization in 2021.
NTT DoCoMo will launch "Docomo Mail Carry" for 330 yen per email address per month (including tax) for 12 Available from 16th of May. You can continue to use your "@docomo.ne.jp" address even if you change your contract from NTT Docomo to the online-only plan ahemo, or if you switch to another company's line. You need a d account to use it. To use the service, you must apply at My docomo, etc. at the same time as canceling your docomo line, or within 31 days after canceling. In addition, in the case of plan change to ahamo, it is necessary to apply on the ahamo site at the same time as the plan change. For iPhone and iPad, you can use the standard "Mail" app. Please check the NTT DOCOMO website for details such as usage precautions.
KDDI (au) will start December 20 as "au Mail Carry", monthly fee per email address We will provide the service for 330 yen (tax included). You can continue to use your "@ezweb.ne.jp" and "@au.com" email addresses even after canceling your au contract and changing to UQ mobile or povo, or even after switching to another carrier. An au ID is required for use. The maximum storage capacity for emails is 400MB/5,000, and the storage period is unlimited. If you have already registered for au Webmail and are subscribed to au Smart Pass Premium or au Smart Pass even after canceling au, the upper limit will be raised to 1 GB/20,000 items. You can continue to use the spam filter function, but since individual settings will be reset, you will need to reset the settings after applying. The settings of the automatic forwarding function will be inherited and can be used, but the forwarding destination change function will be provided from the spring of 2022. To use the service, you must apply from the dedicated website for "au Mail Carry" within 31 days after canceling au.

At the time of writing this article, there is no official announcement from Softbank, but like NTT Docomo and au, even if you switch to LINEMO, Y!mobile, or other carriers, It is expected that a service will be announced that will allow users to continue using their email addresses. In addition to "softbank.ne.jp", it seems to be a service that will be beneficial for users who want to continue using the "i.softbank.jp" address issued for iPhone users.
