Does anyone run into problem with their custom domain’s emails being sent to other people’s spam folders?
You need a DMARC policy, and then dkim or and spf record set up. Without these a lot of email providers will just assume your emails are spam.
Even then, a lot of email is reputation based on ip blocks. You can have all of those things correct and still be sent to spam if you’re using a cloud provider or the like. If you want to avoid trying to get up reputation up, your best bet is to use a reputable mail sending system like resend or smtp2go
This reminds me of the previous head editor of one of the largest media sites in my country. His hobby was to buy various odd/banal domains just in case they become useful one day. Sites like (the language’s equivalent of) fartingcontest.com.
EDIT: I just realised that the URL got automatically turned into a clickable link, and I’m too much of a pussy to check it out.
I never forget to update my credit card expiry date and have to buy my gmail address back from a squatter.
Oh no, the difficulty.
Or would you prefer to argue with Gmail after they delete you Gmail account for reasons?
It’s not the difficulty of the thing. It’s the fact that it’s thing 1,000,001 for me to remember to do in my very busy life. We can’t all be like you, sitting around with nothing better to do than keep track of shit like this.
Hahaha piss off. If a 5-yr interval for credit card renewal is that onerous for you to remember, you live a precious life.
Is there a way to do this without signing up for another subscription?
A domain? No. You’ll have to pay for your domain as long as you want to keep it. They’re not very expensive though. A basic .com will usually run you about 10–15 dollars per year.
