Hi

Could I please pick your brains?

My question is security-related.

My domain-name&#039;s registrar is a multinational, seems to have a good reputation, and it&#039;s been in the business for quite a while. However, I&#039;m not sure about one thing.

Should I accept, set up and use the email-address I get (free-of-charge) from my domain-name&#039;s registrar??

Or, for security reasons (whatever they may or may not be) should I continue using an &quot;external&quot; email-account (Gmail with 2FA) ??

Which of the two options would be safer??

In other words, could an email-address bundled with a domain be more easily exploited by hackers, malware, etc, so becoming a liability/vulnerability for such domain??

In advance, thank you very much for your advice
