This is the second time I've hit things about example.com
When I am going to test an email sender soon, what domain should I friggin use for the test addresses? I want the mails I use for fake test data to not link back to me personally, unless I am specifically looking to receive and look at said mail.
I use something like
user@invalidOr
user@domain.invalidinvalida reserved TLD meant for basically this exact use-case.See RFC 2606
Time to reset the dB again
I used user@example.com ... so should that be fine or not?
It will fail immediately, so that's fine.
testwould work too
