i use a yahoo email account i signed up for in 1996 when it was still called rocketmail. but i also have a gmail account in my actual name, and 99% of the emails are for idiot boomers who think they somehow automatically get theirname@gmail.com and get really loving mad when i reply to them with joke answers.

Progressive JPEG posted:it definitely fixes the "some jackass put in the wrong gmail address for their mortgage application/tax filing/divorce settlement/etc" problem I've had my personal domain for probably 20 years and mostly used it for email but around 12 or so years ago it got to the point where literally thousands upon thousands of spam emails were spoofed using my email address. Whenever I talked to GoDaddy support to ask what could be done about it they basically told me "Dunno, nothing really, good luck" and haven't used it since.

i have the same first and last name as a somewhat famous person so every possible variation is usually always taken when it comes to making an account somewhere. the plus side is i am fairly ungoogleable

There was only one other Eleanor with my last name but she died, which is how I first became that I have an old lady name I used to share a name with a private detective in Beverly Hills who did not like paying his bills. I got a lot of phone calls for him, including one that his sister had died
