What people? Are they in the room with us right now?
Anyone that works at a small/medium/large company has an email address @company.com
- audiodude 3y agoI've heard plenty of stories of people saying "my email is fred@fredsmith.com" and it being input by a customer rep as "fred@fredsmith.com@gmail.com". Or them asking "At gmail.com or hotmail?" and you have to explain "No, at fredsmith.com".

- Pathogen-David 3y agoExcept most normal people don't use their corporate email address for personal stuff. I've always used a custom domain for my main email addresses and whenever I've had to give it to someone else verbally it inevitably leads to some amount of confusion. At the very least they get thrown off by the fact that I didn't say gmail/outlook/yahoo after the @ and I have to repeat the domain name.
