This is a very interesting thread and I am glad I found it. I have some questions regarding email format.

Alright, I heard that email format is quite important, it ought to be professional and also the domain of the email can make the difference between an invite to an interview or the application being sent to the recycle bin.

My current email address is [email protected] where 92 stands for 1992 which is the year I was born in.

A professional email should be firstname.lastname@domain or initialfirstname.lastname@domain but unfortunately these formats are already taken so I had to put 92 in my email address.

I did some research but I haven't understood yet whether or not two numbers are a characteristic that would make a recruiter not to consider my application.

I know, this topic seems stupid but email is actually one of the first things that recruiters look at when they have loads of CVs to get through.
