I own a .co domain. Frequently when entering my email address the validator tries to correct me - “Did you mean .com?”. No, I meant the thing I entered. The real problem is when I give my email address to someone else and then they get corrected by their email client. For some reason, people place implicit trust in these validators. This results in emails getting sent to the wrong TLD. .co was released in 1991, and it’s easier than ever to launch a TLD. Email validators need to stop validating TLDs. It doesn’t help anyone.
