I also reached out to them on Twitter but they directed me to this form. I followed up with them on Twitter with what happened in this screenshot but they are now ignoring me.

    The only correct regex for email is: .+@.+

    So long as the address has a local part, the at sign, and a hostname, it’s a valid email address.

    Whether it goes somewhere is the tricky part.

      Sorry, this is not a correct regex for an email address.

      Sending using mail on a local unix system? You only need the local part.

      STOP VALIDATING NAMES AND EMAIL ADDRESSES. Send a verification email. Full stop. Don’t do anything else. You really want to do this anyway, because it’s a defense against bots.
