If your uni would have wanted you to keep using that address they would have provided you with a real account. So far you could use your uni address as a fake address on the SMTP server of your provider. Proton mail will not allow that, it is a trick very often used by spammers and worse, they obviously don't want any of of that. FWIW, my ISP does allow it, so I could test it for a few addresses. Email sent with fake email addresses does arrive, but only with addresses from existing domains and always with internal warnings which could easily trigger a spam or phishing filter. So, long story short, it looks like you'll finally have to bite the bullet and inform your contacts of your new email address.
