I won't even begin to argue about the desire to plug in a false email address to prevent spamming and its validity. That wasn't the point in the eyes of my client at the time. The client gets what he wants.

As far as the mickey_mouse@hotmail.com goes, the program spec I was working against was to validate the domain names as being real and thankfully not the actual account. I think that validating the account would be harder...
