Maybe it has too many character or has symbols that aren't accepted? Universal Acceptance seeks to solve this problem聽so that no matter the language. characters, or script, every email address and domain name are accepted without discrimination. Visit the recording of an expert panel discussion this little-known issue that fundamentally impacts the ability for many people to engage online in an authentic and user-friendly manner.聽
