Please use a personal email. My email is 'mail' @ 'my actual name'. It does not get more personal than that
But you can't use emails starting with mail@, admin@, support@, info@, main@, etc.
Instead they advised me (3 times) to create a personal email on a service like Yahoo, Outlook, Gmail, Orange, etc
You're viewing a single thread.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to alias out each place you submit an email address to, so you can see who sells your contact details or otherwise gets hacked?
Eg: changeorg@yourna.me, netflix@yourna.me etc.?
I just go with full domain names. Like change.org@yourna.me. Even combos where data is shared, like shop.com-bank.org@your.name or jitsi.corp-gravatar.com@your.name. But some places actually went out of their way to disallow their own domains anywhere in the field. I've encountered it maybe like 3 times across all of ~1000 logins I have in my password manager.
And the amount of times I had to explain to people that yes, this is a legit email, yes it has your company's name and your personal name in it, it is exactly as intended, so don't send me spam because I will know it was you who sent it...
This is exactly what I do. When I start getting a bunch of spam addressed to Walmart@[my domain] I can blanket filter that straight into spam because I know Walmart sold my info.
Yeah i set up a catch all mail now. It just seems like a very defensive method to me.
