I'm not overly bothered by the use of GMail for a business address,
although you're right that a registered domain looks better. (And
"netcrime4" definitely doesn't fill me with confidence.) But more
bothersome is the sending of job postings to a list/newsgroup that
isn't meant to be used for that. Instead, try posting here:

https://www.python.org/jobs/

If you can't convince the Job Board folks that you're legit, you
probably won't be able to post. (Which I think is a good thing.)
