Enabling .ONLINE Email Extension

[jeffgrech]

How do I enable .online email extensions in Magento?

SYSTEM > CONFIGURATION > GENERAL > STORE EMAIL ADDRESSES

When trying add: address@website.ONLINE

I keep getting an error that the email address is invalid when trying to save it. The address is valid. It's setup through 1and1.com

Thank you,

Hi,

This is because the .ONLINE tld is not supported by default in Magento.

It's quite easy to add support for it. Open up the file /lib/Zend/Validate/Hostname.php

Locate a line of code that looks as follows:

protected $_validTlds = array(

And you should see a list of TLDs in there.. e.g.

        'abogado',
        'ac',
        'academy',
        'accountants',
        .....

Just add the following into the list:

'online',

Hope this helps!

How does this help when a customer comes along with another TLD that isn't supported? they won't be able to create thier account and sales will be lost. I cannot believe that the Magento developers could allow such a situation to occur. This issue is going to cost store owners business. A proper fix is needed for this ASAP.
