You're right, it's not 100% anonymous. But my name's not in the domain, and I use WhoisGuard with my registrar. It's reasonably effective, cheap, and a low effort way to deflect the bots and identify suspicious activity.

This could be more easily done by simply signing up for gmail with an address that doesn't contain your name.

7786655's point was that the custom domain is not perfect anonymity because if someone knows who owns the domain, then they know the owner of every email. If someone discovers my pseudonymous gmail account, then the same problem exists. But perfect anonymity was never my goal.
