Q: Do I need 3 email addresses for icloud
I have my own domain (let's call it jj.com for simplicity). my email address at jj.com is my Apple ID and primary email address. I have 2 issues:
1. I want to close down my whole domain, so I have to change my primary email because it will no longer exist. When I try to change my Apple id to my icloud email, I get a message saying it can't be an Apple email. When I try to set it to my gmail address, I get a message saying my Apple ID cannot be my rescue email address.
2. Because my Apple id is my @jj.com address, and because I have set up my icloud address as an additional address, I am getting 2 copies of every email.
Do I really need 3 different email addresses to use iCloud (1 for Apple ID, 1 for rescues, and the icloud email itself)? There must be a way around that!
Thanks for any tips you can throw at me!

You don't absolutely need to have a rescue email address, but you should keep it; if you delete it and forget your security answers, you'll need to contact Apple to get back in. The other two are absolutely needed.
