Wouldn't the shortest possible Email address be 3 characters long, as in "a@b", where b is a TLD with a MX record, or did I failed to understand something critical?
- ars 17y agoYou are correct. Although I don't think there are any TLD's with one letter. Sean Hastings <sean@ai> seems to be real, and ai has an MX record.
- wizard_2 17y ago.ai seems to be a "personal TLD". Most of the websites I've found on the tld (www.ai and nic.ai) are written in first person. The registrar (same person?) takes 3 months to approve accounts after charges before giving you the domain, dns changes are made on weekends, and 2nd level domains (ie hn.ai) are reserved for residents and local companies. I don't have a problem with any of that. I'm just curious how you find yourself in charge of such a setup.
- die_sekte 17y agoIt's the TLD of Anguilla, and Anguilla is quite small (population of 13000, area just over 100 square kilometers), so most likely the internet of Anguilla is maintained by just a few persons whose first priority isn't the TLD and the domains in it. Personal TLDs don't exist (at least as far as I know). Some registrars are just tiny, AdamsNames for example which maintains .TC, .VG and .GD.
