Details

RFC 2606 specifies a number of top level domains which can be used for testing or documentation. Some MUAs refuse to send mail to addresses within those domains since those addresses can't be valid.
Whiteboard: [HELP WANTED]
The reserved domains are ".test", ".example", ".invalid" and ".localhost". ".invalid" is typically used for munging.
