- DominikPeters 6y agoUgh, that list might be why my email address mail@[personal domain] is forbidden more and more often.
- Mandatum 6y agoI use a catch-all and mark some handles as spam once a website has been hacked, or the email has been caught by spammers. I trust you've probably adopted a similar workaround for problem websites. For throwaway websites (where I use a password I have no intention of keeping track of), I often sign up as "spam@domain".. This is surprisingly blocked in a lot of instances.
- owenmarshall 6y agoThis looks overly opinionated: I can’t have co-op but I could have accounting? I’d rather see a list with justifications.
- chucksmash 6y agoInteresting that "zuck" is disallowed.
- CGamesPlay 6y agoWhy would they disallow every language name? This list says it's for "security concerns"... are they trying to curb social engineering by just disallowing words? [append] Hmm, I guess this list should be declared as "should not be allowed to be created by users of SHARED email hosts".
