    I also find it weird that you can’t create unlimited addresses on your custom domains.

    For the shared domains, limits in this regard are absolutely understandable as the supply is limited but addresses should have next to no cost for PM when they’re under my own domain.

    Why is that? @protonmail@mastodon.social

      This and the fact that I can’t use my mail clients on android (I understand the bridge and the incompatibility with encryption, it makes sense, I just don’t like it), stops me from being a paid customer

    • I imagine a bad actor could buy a custom domain, connect it to proton, and then spam millions of people from thousands of addresses, using Proton’s infrastructure?

      What is the # limit on a custom domain?

        You could do that without creating thousands of addresses; one is plenty for that. Also, they’d still be under your domain, so all you’d do is hurt the custom domain’s reputation and probably get it blocked by everyone quite quickly. If anything, I’d imagine thousands of addresses under one domain spamming would get that domain banned much more quickly than if it was just one address.

        What is the # limit on a custom domain?

        There is no specific limit for addresses on custom domains; it’s one global limit of 15 addresses, no matter which domain they’re under.
