I'm using the Email validator, and experiencing some trouble with domain resolution. After having some intermittent failures, I made a simple fuzz tester and found an address which doesn't work. So as not to generate any extra spam traffic for these guys, replace '??' with 'taker' below : >>> v = validators.Email(resolve_domain=True) >>> email='foo@??.com' >>> v.to_python(email) Invalid: The domain of the email address does not exist (the portion after the @: ??.com) However, I can dig their MX records just fine. I think it's a pyDNS issue, but I'm not sure. I'm running Debian testing using: FormEncode-0.7.1-py2.4 python-dns 2.3.0-5.1 Any suggestions?
