Forward all of your email addresses to your new gmail address
There is also a setting in gmail that allows you to set your reply to address to your original gmail accounts email address.
Hope that helps.

That's one solution but it's a lot to go through. Plus I think if you set the phone to not sync, it should not synch. That's the real issue. However, just to offer some work around help. The androids I've played with (waiting for mine to come in) have the option to select which contact groups you synch to the phone. If nothing else you could create a new contact group called phone and just put a bogus contact in there. Name it Ziek so it's at the end of your contacts list and then just tell the android to synch that group. Then the contacts you have on your phone will be the only ones you stand to lose if it erases stuff again. Just an idea that I can't test at the moment. be sure to back up everything first.
