Hmm, I don't use 1. or 2.  But 3. is covered because I retrieve my email to my 
computers, and since it's an IMAP system each computer has the same messages.  
In fact, Gmail has more backed up than I need as it keeps all the messages.

Gmail can simulate sending from a different address, but I suppose the 
different server is the problem with the bouncing of messages.
