I’m considering getting a domain with a .place TLD. Will it cause any issues like emails being blocked or something? I searched and it doesn’t seem particularly notorious for spam or anything, but I wanted to find out if there are people who can tell me from experience.
Edit: This is not for running my own server - I have a provider, Disroot.
Ohh, I maybe should clarify. I don’t intend to use my own server. I have a provider - disroot.
This doesn’t change the situation at all. Each mail server has their own whitelists and blacklists. Some mailservers have explicit whitelists and will throw into the spam folder anything not on the whitelist. You could have a perfectly configured mail server and be doing everything right, but because your TLD isn’t on the whitelist its throw into spam regardless. It entirely depends on the configuration of the mail server to whom you’re sending mail.
Mail is super hard.
That should alleviate problems with sending your mails and them not being in the recipient’s spam folder. The problem with less common tlds is that some ancient forms don’t validate them as actual domains. But this has improved vastly in the last few years. I would say just try it out, it should be fine.
Having a standard TLD to go with the nonstandard will be helpful.
