It's for recruiting and they mainly want new grads. It's a filter not a bug.

It is a shame you can't get access as a non recruitment target though.

It's also a shame they only see recent grads as recruitment targets.

The people whom this is meant for are not the people who would complain about "needing" an EDU email and would just get one or figure out a bypass.

Options I can see:

1. You can get one from Hafis: https://hafis.net/product-category/edu-email/,

2. or host your own mail server after registering an .edu address,

3. or maybe you can find someone in your network who still has a valid .edu address and is willing to register for you.

Just looking at the site it seems they pull from an approved list of .edu domains so I think 2 probably wouldn't work unless you could social engineer you way onto the approved list. The ones sold by Hafis might not either, I didn't see a list of approved institutions readily available though.
