At a certain point I think you're allowed to say you don't care if the person with this email address is capable of signing up or using your service:

very.”(),:;<>[]”.VERY.”very@\\ "very”.unusual@strange.example.com



Too bad - if that's my email address and you're rejecting it, I'm going to sue you for denying service arbitrarily and win. Not every country is the USA.


> I'm going to sue you for denying service arbitrarily and win

Which country are you claiming this entirely implausible legal scenario would work in?


The denial of service was not intentional so I doubt you would win anything.


You'd have to fix your code, at least.


Is there a country where this has happened?
