       I registered a domain under the top-level-domain "email" 9.5 years ago.   Unsurprisingly I use it for email, and it has been functioning successfully for 9.5 years now.I am still surprised how may websites claim it's not a valid email address.  Not just any websites, sometimes very big very popular websites.Please stop using bad regular expressions to validate your addresses.   The only way to test if a domain is legit is to send a test email and confirm its receipt.

       While I am at it, websites, also please stop silently truncating passwords that are too long.If a user supplies a password that is too long, and you silently truncate it, next time they log in their password will not work.What is even worse - and I am surprised how often I see this - is websites that do not tell you they have a maximum password length that they truncate to. So then you get into a loop of "Reset Password""Fail login""Reset password""Fail login"...

       Why even have password length limits, anyway?Seriously. Limiting the length doesn't do anything for anyone.

       @YAb0 Limiting the lengths of a password smacks of a limited length password field in a database table, and no hashing.
