your End
By the magic of paying an actual mail provider instead of using big corpo free ones you can have as many and as varied mail addresses as you want. And they all end in the same inbox. You can even get fancy and register domains and shit to breach into the world of ultimate cool mail addresses.
Paying for SMTP
My first email was Firstname_Lastname@aol.com. When aol became insufferable and a challenger appeared, I made Firstname.Lastname@gmail.com.
Gmail lets you add "."s anywhere and it'll still work, so all my spammy or whatever things I sign up for are Firs.T.Nam.E.L.Astnam.E@gmail.com or some random variation. Makes it easy to delete all the junk.
I finally caved and bought a domain name of my last name last year.
Yea......
krillinluv@sbcglobal.net was mine. Retired it a long time ago though haha

Mine uses the XxCringexX from like 2007. It's still my main account..
I ditched my first email for first.last@domain.com right out of high school.
It was cringe enough that even 18 year old me recognized it.
I had two email addresses throughout all of highschool. The one I gave to adults if they asked, firstname-lastname@, and the one I used to sign into msn and give to all my friends... I forget the exact address but it was definitely along the lines of "hotpants-sexi.kitty.87@"
The former is still my primary email. The other one is sitting abandoned since I was 17 and smart enough to realise what a stupid idea it was, but I never deleted it and I can't even remember it.
Dude you do not look well for a thirty year old. You a smoker?
I‘d still use my gmx address from 2003 if it wasn’t for me opting in the free premium trial (I provided no information) that did not have an opt out option and then they banned my account…
