    From the FAQ [1]:

    > Why won’t a site accept my ⁨Relay⁩ alias? Some sites [...] have stopped accepting all addresses except those from Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo accounts.

    I think a more likely explanation is the fact that many sites these days block the usage of email addresses from domains known to host disposable addresses. For example, mozmail.com (the top domain that is used by Firefox Relay) appears on [2] that is sourced by many libraries on GitHub.

    I have three issues: No custom tld domain for premium?

    I like the service but want use my own domain, because some signups forbid subdomain emails.

    Spam or too big attachments won't deliver.

    There is no spam folder? so I will never get the email even it's no spam.

    The attachment size is way too small if I get an invoice pdf eg.

    That means that service can only used for unimportant websites.
