I was thinking about this recently as a I work on a new mail client/server. I have one personal email that has a custom domain. 1 that's a plain gmail address and then a variety of random accounts I can't even remember but I guess were legacy or tests for new providers like protonmail. Then there's email address for whatever company you work for at the time. I realise I don't really want to hand out my personal email in a public setting and my company address is mostly for internal stuff. So where's public email?
Are we missing public email accounts? One's that you can just hand out anywhere?
Actual inboxes with their separate username@domain and password? Probably about 20, out of which I only really use around 10 and the rest are dormant or I don't really bother checking.
Unlimited on my self hosted mail servers across a dozen or so domains and up to 600 aliases on Fastmail across several domains. I do not have any that I could hand out anywhere as it would get blasted by junk and I would end up having to remove it unless I filtered on a set of GPG keys or something to that effect.

Then for "hand out anywhere" I just use iCloud aliases that I can disable.
