Addresses that are obviously professionally inappropriate are one thing. Otherwise I pay approximately zero attention to them, outside the context of "do I have the right one" and "how likely is this to be a phishing email."

In the context of picking one for myself, I would also worry about usability factors, like if people are likely to confuse one thing for another, or not doing things like putting a long random character sequence as the user name.

Yeah, I guess [ contact at mydomain dot com ] is pretty great and straightforward. I'll just be more careful whenever using other aliases to register in websites with the potential to reach me by the used e-mail.
