90's when customer service really was hugely important to those of us at Paradise and if you called the helpdesk you'd get your question answered by a real person on 1st or 2nd ring (unless we had an outage).

This is the first I have heard of them retiring the @paradise mail - I have a number of client who use it for redirects/etc to other things who are not especially tech savvy and have not told me.
I don't understand why they would even bother to retire it, surely moving the MX for the domain is simpler than trying to kill it?

It turns out that it is the Paradise dial up accounts that are being retired and any mailboxes associated with a dial up account are being retired as well. TC are forwarding paradise email addresses to TC mailboxes.

Indeed, had a few mailboxes on Clear.net that were associated with a pay per use dial-up plan retired, but eventually got them sorted. They mentioned doing the same for paradise.net as well at the time. Long live dial-up. ;) -Jo.
