From: Ron via Talk <talk@lists.gtalug.org> A tip when going into this, "Valid" can mean "Was Once Valid per RFC". https://e-mail.wtf/ I started the test. I disagree with their answer to the first question, so I gave up. easy@example.com I say "invalid" because example.com is a reserved domain. They say "valid".
So, to test these guys, I just said "valid" And it tells me: easy@example.com ❌ This is valid. No tricks here, just easing you into it. F*cking idiots. The email address is valid in it's format but invalid in terms of RFC is the correct answer. So, it looks like they find an ambigious reason to push their POV which is that whoever are jumping through their hoops is just 'wrong' Whahahaha, WE are all idiots for falling for this bullshit. hth Andre
As described in RFC 2606 and RFC 6761, a number of domains such as example.com and example.org are maintained for documentation purposes. These domains may be used as illustrative examples in documents without prior coordination with us. They are not available for registration or transfer. ------------------------------------ Description: GTALUG Talk Unsubscribe via Talk-unsubscribe@lists.gtalug.org Start a new thread: talk@lists.gtalug.org This message archived at https://lists.gtalug.org/archives/list/talk@lists.gtalug.org/message/N4K5G5U...
