This must be related to the tld you're using, right? Not that Etsy only allows @gmail.com addresses?
I've noticed that some sites will specifically ban public domains from throwaway services like mailinator, but I can't recall having encountered a blanket tld ban.

I didn't try too hard to get it to work, or figure out exactly what their criteria were, but I kept getting blocked until I used my old gmail. Their customer support wasn't very helpful, either.
- culturestate 5y agoInteresting. Out of curiosity, I just tried to register with one of my personal .us domains (g suite) and one of my work .com domains (fastmail) and both worked fine. Maybe they changed their validation after you submitted your case!
