Having only done a migration to Google once, my notes from the job back in 2021 unhelpfully read:- >it did not seem to allow the setup [of the domain] to be completed before >the MX was changed to route the email - [client] was happy with the risk - >for larger migrations, this would be problematic The domain was fairly new with only one mailbox hosted elsewhere, which mitigated the risk. I did not manage to find a better solution, but did not have much time for research. Hopefully Martin Hasenbein's suggestion will work, and I will keep a note of it lest I need to do another migration to Google in the future.
