Typos were infrastructure.
The subject line was “DNS migration.” The body was an inventory: more than sixty lines of domains collected over time.
There were brand variations, category phrases, campaign-looking names, and plenty of spelling experiments. More than sixty lines. No need to repeat every one.
One line was not even a domain. It was the name of a text file. That is what a working inventory can look like before anybody has cleaned it up: mostly names, one obvious artifact, and no explanation attached to any of them.
This is not the migration procedure yet. No registrar plan. No expiration dates. No name-server instructions. No list of redirects or mail records.
I called the email “DNS migration.” The body is still just the inventory. I do not know from this list whether every name is active, belongs to the same registrar, or needs the same destination.
It was just the inventory.
That is where I have to start. Before deciding what moves, I need to know what exists.
The list itself cannot answer which domains receive traffic, which are brand protection, which belong to an old campaign, or which can be retired. Those questions require another pass. Treating every line as if it had the same job would be as careless as forgetting one entirely.
The spelling variations are funny. The company has accumulated enough domains that the migration starts with a long accounting exercise.
Right now I have a very long list. What happens to each name comes next.
