I am currently generating a sitemap file dynamically using a HttpHandler, with a path set to sitemap.axd. This then returns xml content. No one at my office is certain if all search engines accept this extension or if they need .xml to parse. I know that I can submit it to Google through the webmaster tools and use robots.txt to indicate that the sitemap is sitemap.axd.
Is sitemap.axd accepted by all? If not, does anyone know which ones will or won't?
