I ran into this with an NVMO mobile provider. They did not like my personal email domains (assorted .net and .org) so I nagged their customer support until they manually added it. Their marketing team happily emails my personal domains once added. Some day this will probably cause a problem but my goal is to eventually get rid of my cell phone either way.

I ran into this with an NVMO mobile provider. As of about six months ago, AT&T's web site would not accept email addresses without a three-character TLD. I had to get a customer service person on the phone to manually change my address.

  Even .us ??? Pretty sure I used my usual domain (enslaves.us) with them for wireless and california landline and u-verse.

    Just a guess but .us does not permit whois privacy and perhaps that may be a factor but I am entirely guessing as all my domains have whois privacy enabled and they would not say why their system rejected my domains.

  Do you mean it was failing with a >3 character TLD?

        I don't know the specifics. I can imagine someone using a regex like ^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{3}$ it worked for the emails that the web dev tried and you have to have a valid email address to file a complaint.
