Why do you want so much to limit to 6, especially since you also do a DNS validation?
You should better lean on the permissive side; that would be one less thing to think about.
That kind of "validation" does not check for existing email addresses anyway, so there is not much value in trying to be strict in this area.
- huhtenberg 13y agoYeah, I agree in principle, but it's at 6 simply because it works fine as is. Given new developments it might make sense to bump it up and/or add support for punycode, and we'll do it once it's actually needed.
- kijeda 13y agoWhat is the threshold where supporting a domain becomes important? It seems awfully arbitrary to say it "works fine as is" when it is disenfranchising millions of registered domains as it stands.
