When Apple's MobileMe came out I snagged the [e-mail] email address, thinking how clever I was. But because filtering tools weren't as good back then I was never able to use it because of the truly massive amount of spam and test emails I'd get.

Thanks for the laugh. I wonder what [e-mail] gets hahaha

For anyone unaware, the domain 'example.com' is specifically reserved for the purpose of testing, so you don't have to worry about some rando reading emails sent to "[e-mail]"

I don't get it. What does gmail.com have to do with example.com?

Is a public service announcement. If you’re using [e-mail] to actually test something, you should probably be using [e-mail]. Not everyone knows that example.com exists for these purposes.

That is of course unless you really intend to send an email to someone at [e-mail].
