I had a similar issue when I first brought my iPad. Turns out, Apple doesn't like custom domains for emails. So, I had to make an Apple account with a Gmail account, then remove the Gmail account and add my email address with the custom domain.

Why? Who knows. Still remember my first experience after buying an iPad.

Might've had something to do with the state of the various email security measures on the domain. I have an Apple account on a custom domain with Fastmail and it's never been a problem.

Mine was also managed by Fastmail. And no one else has ever had a problem with it (including Apple when I added it after signing up).

I couldn't make an account on the website Digikey outsourced all their 3d models to with my work email. signed up with my personal gmail account in less than 30 seconds.

This is not some Apple specific problem.

Also this was yesterday. Never did I get any of the 3 confirmation emails they claim they sent to my work mail.

You have to reach a human to make a Flickr account in 2025 if you use a custom domain. It wasn't too difficult, they gave me some reason about abuse. Whatever.

What does custom domain mean? Just an email provider other than the mainstream ones?
