As a practical matter, 'bar.mime-type' had better be a proper DNS entry, or a lot of places that do a "is the address at least putatively returnable?" test (which *should* be essentially 100% - does anybody *not* check this?), they will find it won't go very far. As a second practical matter, I suspect that all the places that have already decided that '*.biz' is a cesspool will be even more dubious accepting mail from '[email protected]'. I'm still trying to figure out if this was for real, or if it was intended to be posted 2 weeks ago and ICANN bureaucracy delayed it... ;) Attachment:
