Had that email address for over 25 years. It’s the only one that has my actual name attached to it. It’s how very very very old friends and people I haven’t talked to since college still manage to reach out and get in contact with me. I don’t think I wanna change it. I have other, newer email addresses I use for contemporaneous stuff.
Also, spam
This is why I bought a domain years ago. Change and alias and whatever I want whenever I want.
Oh, I had my own Web server for a couple of decades, and while that was useful, maintaining my own email server was a pain in the ass. Especially for junk mail filtering.
I agree. I don't host it myself though. I'm just Google's product with that super grandfathered free version of workspace.
Oh, I’m sorry, I clearly misunderstood what you said and what you were were referring to
You don't need to run your own email server to use a custom domain, some email providers let you use your own domain.
