Is it the @AOL or is your email something like donkeycock69buttstuff? I worked at a place that wouldn’t hire a guy because, even though he had great qualifications, his email was literally sexystud69@whatever. It made him look childish and the committee wanted someone more mature.
Another story: When I first got an iPhone back in the 2010s, my nephew and I told Siri to change my name to Ramona Dirtysquirts. Fast forward and few years to when I was having trouble getting a job, and I went back to my old “reach out” emails, amd even though the address was a variant of my name, Siri automatically signed all those emails as Ramona Dirtysquirts. I had a job within a year of fixing that problem.
