Email address not recognised in registration (and will not send manually either)

A customer has tried to register with an email address of name@ulusaba1.plus.com

They were unable to complete the registration process as it is “not a recognised” email or words to that effect.

I registered them with my email address and then edited the details. I asked for the registration details to be resent (to their email address of name@ulusaba1.plus.com) and it comes back as mail delivery system error.

I have asked them for an alternative email address but they do not have one. Any suggestions as to why this is not working and how I can fix it?

The reason it’s not working is likely because you have the Email Validation Level set to “International + DNS Check” in Event Espresso > Registration Form > Reg Form Settings. You can change it to “International” and it will allow email addresses that don’t pass MX and A record checks to be submitted on the registration form.

Hi there,

Josh posted the location for that setting in his above reply.

Go to Dashboard -> Event Espresso -> Registration Form -> Reg Form Settings – http://take.ms/zl1Ms

It’s the top setting and as mentioned above you want to use the ‘International’ setting.

thank you. I have changed the settings as suggested, resent the email and got the same result.

May I ask are you using a transactional email service like one of the services listed here to send the email, or are you relying on the server’s built-in mail server?
