email - 是否有用于测试 "throwaway"电子邮件的标准域？

Question

我注意到该域名

contoso.com

当需要示例时，通常在文档中使用

。我一直认为这是一个虚拟域名，就像电话前缀“555”一样用于将垃圾邮件路由到某种电信空白中(尽管 contoso.com 似乎是一个真实的站点)。

当我必须使用唯一的电子邮件地址测试注册表 20 次并且我不关心消息会发生什么，但我不希望它发生时，是否有一个可以安全使用的域一个真实的人？

您可以使用 example.com。根据Wikipedia article :

example.com, example.net, and example.org are second-level domain names reserved by the Internet Engineering Task Force through RFC 2606, Section 3,1 for use in documentation and examples. They are not available for registration.

By implementing the reservation, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) made available domains to use in manuals and sample software configurations. Thus, documentation writers can be sure to select a domain name without creating naming conflicts if end-users try to use the sample configurations or examples verbatim.

When an address such as "yourusername@example.com" is used to demonstrate the sign-up process on a website, it indicates to the user they should fill in an actual e-mail address at which they receive mail. "example.com" is used in a generic and vendor-neutral manner.

These domain names resolve to a server managed by ICANN.
