Summary

When trying to sign up using my mail address (the pixelated area seen in the screenshot only contains letters and digits) is denied with the error message "Invalid email format", even though it's a valid mail address.

Steps to reproduce

Go to https://web.canary.fluxer.app/register
Enter flux1234@mailfwd.top as an example and fill in the rest of the information
Click on "Create account"

Nothing was fixed here. Blocking some email domains on the main instance is intentional anti-spam behavior.

For anti-spam purposes, some email address domains may not be accepted on our main instance. Since we cannot easily make case-by-case exemptions, I'd like to ask you to use a different email address if possible. If you really do not have access to any other email address, please send an email to support@fluxer.app, since this is account-related and not specific to Fluxer as a software. Thanks!
