@gmail.com is no @jdoe.net, but imho it's probably one of the most respectable free email domains.



Hi, one quick question: If you use @jdoe.net because it looks more professional, what would you use for the local part of the address? Does e.g. contact@jdoe.net look better than jdoe@gmail.com? I'm thinking when used for job applications and such.


john@jdoe.net is what I'd use, or if you have an uncommon last name like me and it's available as a domain name, john@doe.net and a blog at john.doe.net.


What is @jdoe.net a reference to?


John Doe
