I think it would be worth adding hostmaster@ to your list. RFC2142 strongly recommends using this 'well known mailbox name' in your DNS zone's SOA record.

| Jul 18, 2018 at 2:14 | comment | added | pushkin | Can you clarify the bit about the aliases? Do you mean you create one admin@ account, and then give out contact@ and say contact2@ which forward to admin@? I tried forwarding non-existent addresses to the main email address, but that did not work. Or do you mean set up a catchall and have all emails forward to admin@? Thanks | |
| Sep 17, 2015 at 4:40 | comment | added | Concrete Gannet | Yes, you can and should use aliases where that makes sense. Yes, there are well-known addresses Certificate Authorities will use. But the real answer is to refer to RFC 2142, as M Dudley said in a comment above. That says what are the well-known addresses. | |
