SeeSaw

So, I just went to register for a SeeSaw invite, I entered my usual e-mail address, which is iDunno@sommitrealweird.co.uk, and got told it was not a valid e-mail address... erm, yes it is, I use it rather a lot, dammit! So, I changed the localpart from iDunno to one of my less used aliases, and that it accepted... this means that they're checking the localpart and rejecting things with a localpart of idunno, I don't know what other localparts they're rejecting, but that seemed a little harsh...

Ah well, now I'll wait for the invite then I can test :)

Update: Apparently if you put the e-mail address in all lowercase it accepts it fine. sigh.

I tried to use jon+yahoo@example.org (with a real domain) for yahoo and they rejected it. I assumed because of the + but with a . it also failed. Turns out they reject any non-yahoo email address containing "yahoo" for "copyright infringement purposes".

What, no link to the service in question? Which SeeSaw do you mean?
