Add a postmaster@ and abuse@ email address

postmaster@ and abuse@ are standard addresses that mail providers, security researchers, and anti-abuse systems expect to exist at every domain, receiving bounce reports, deliverability feedback, and abuse complaints that would otherwise go nowhere.

Some receiving mail systems and anti-spam processes specifically check for these addresses, and their absence can itself be treated as a minor negative signal, they are a small, standard piece of email infrastructure hygiene.

How to do it

1. 1
   Create both addresses

   [email protected] and [email protected], either as real inboxes or forwards to one you monitor.
2. 2
   Route them somewhere actually checked

   These addresses receive genuinely important feedback and complaints, not just noise, they need real monitoring.
3. 3
   Respond appropriately to what comes in

   A genuine abuse complaint deserves real attention, not just archiving.
