   Hello

   I face a strange problem when trying to add a new user through the admin dashboard, I got this error:

   -----------
   ERROR: The e-mail address isn’t correct.
   -----------

   The email address i try to add is: <username>@windowslive.com

   I replaced "windowslive" with "gmail" and still have the same problem.

   What could be the issue ?

   Thanks

   Can you add users with any other email address?

   I tried another username@gmail.com and it was accepted. Then i modified the registered user and changed it's email address to the required one.

   I deactivated all the plugins when tried to add users, it seems to be a code or something else blocking specific usernames from being added.

   WP doesn't incorporate any form of blacklist by default.

   WP doesn't incorporate any form of blacklist by default.

   So what could be the issue ? maybe something related to the server configuration ?
