Please use a personal email. My email is ‘mail’ @ ‘my actual name’. It does not get more personal than that

But you can’t use emails starting with mail@, admin@, support@, info@, main@, etc.

Instead they advised me (3 times) to create a personal email on a service like Yahoo, Outlook, Gmail, Orange, etc

    Yeah I also have a non-standard email address, and I occasionally run into systems that aren’t properly set up to handle odd domains. I’ve definitely seen the “Please enter a valid email address. Make sure it ends with @gmail/yahoo/outlook etc” messages before.

      Nonstandard email sounds so wrong! As long are it is valid, there should be no limits. Especially if they ask you to confirm by clicking on a link in a mail

        Oh I agree. But there are a lot of systems that don’t even recognize TLDs outside of .com, .org, and .net.
