Some guidance on
how to check/configure vanity domains may be appropriate,

If you can suggest some specific text, that would be great?
But I imagine I could make a case
that, with some of the sloppy terminology and handwaving we see
around, ISODE.COM is a vanity domain name and dukhovni.org is
even more probably one.
Undoubtedly sufficiently sloppy (ab)use of terminology will classify
even gmail.com as a vanity domain...
As for dukhovni.org a friend and I share the burdens of root access
to the server that provides SMTP, submission, IMAP and authoritative
primary DNS for that and a handful of other domains.
Is it a "vanity" domain? Who knows, that's a rather informal term
I believe. In this thread, I took the term to loosely mean a hosted
domain with no dedicated resources that piggy-backs on a provider's
infrastructure. In which case dukhovni.org is not a vanity domain.
If by a "vanity" domain one means a domain that stokes my geek-cred
vanity, then, by all means, call it vanity.
