I almost use the methodology except I add ramdom characters at the end. Tesla.ahcdk@domain.com
Reasoning is that its most likely if you have tesla@ you will have facebook@ tesco@. When adding characters you can filter on the . + 4 characters
- GoblinSlayer 2y agoI heard facebook doesn't allow emails with "facebook" in them. Alternatively you can give facebook.te@ address to tesla and tesla.fb@ address to facebook, nobody will figure it out :)
- nobody9999 2y ago>I heard facebook doesn't allow emails with "facebook" in them. Where, exactly, did you hear that?. I can confirm that's not the case. My FB email address is a bare 'facebook@myemaildoman' and hasn't been a problem. Ever. That said, I set that as my FB email address more than a decade ago, so I guess things may have changed since then.
- nobody9999 2y ago>Reasoning is that its most likely if you have tesla@ you will have facebook@ tesco@. When adding characters you can filter on the . + 4 characters I get you, and it's a good idea if you're using someone else's domain (e.g., gmail.com, protonmail.com, etc.) to make sure you have a unique email address. Since I own -- and host my own domain for my emails (as does the OP, IIRC), that's not necessary, as the domain name itself makes the email address unique -- since I'm the only one who uses it. As such, I can (and do) just filter on 'facebook', 'tesla' and 'tesco' directly.
