Comment (by olau):
We just had an SMTP exception from Exim because a user managed to enter
his email address with a trailing dot. Probably he copied it from
somewhere with a period at the end. This echoes what Josh C said, but I
just want to confirm that Django's behaviour in this case caused us a real
problem, so yeah, this is a genuine bug.
