- rkomorn 10mo agoThat is that we do as well, but she still has her own email account that I presume she'll keep as long as Gmail exists.
- toast0 10mo agoI used to get email for an org that had a similar domain as me (they had an extra letter in the middle). Thankfully, not a very big org, I would just bounce addresses that got a lot of misdirected email and I think they shut down and that really solved the problem. Still annoying, but not as bad as gmail. I just got an email, in Italian, about someone adding a passkey to their ebay account. No way to tell ebay it's not their address / it's not my account.
- missedthecue 10mo agoI've noticed a lot of sites and orgs wont accept email domains that aren't gmail, hotmail, outlook, icloud, or yahoo.
- marcusb 10mo agoInteresting. I've used my personal domain name for email for almost 30 years and I've never had that problem.
- missedthecue 10mo agoIt's a tactic to prevent burner/spam accounts created using temporary emails
- rkomorn 10mo agoSimilar boat (~25 years) and, while I've run into some sites/services that rejected my domain, I'm pretty sure it's happened fewer than 5 times, total.
