.NAME domain email and usage

.NAME domains were originally designed for personal use and supported third-level registrations (e.g., firstname.lastname.name), which included email forwarding functionality provided by the registry.

Today, .NAME domains function like standard domain extensions.

Email functionality

• If you register a second-level .NAME domain (e.g., yourname.name), you have full control over DNS settings
• You can create and manage email addresses through your hosting or email provider
• Email features such as forwarding, storage limits, and message size are determined by your provider, not the .NAME registry

Third-level domains

• Some third-level .NAME domains (e.g., john.doe.name) may still exist
• These were historically associated with email forwarding services
• Any limitations related to email forwarding are not standardized today and may vary depending on the provider
