I mentioned previously about experimenting with iCloud custom domain hosting and getting around the 3 aliases per domain by making use of subdomains thus a theoretical 15 aliases if one were to use a domain plus 4 subdomains. When experimenting it found a few problems with the idea with the first being that there were several services I tested it with (sending email from a subdomain) resulted in it being sent straight to to the spam folder. I thought it may have had something to do with a lack of a DMAC entry in my DNS settings so I ended up giving it a try again but the same issue occurred.

Long story short, it sounded like a good idea at the time but if the emails you send have a high likelihood of heading to the spam folder then it is going to cause problems particularly when emailing people who aren’t tech savvy resulting in people never receiving the email. What I decided to do is keep with Google Workspace, Chrome and Android.
