"john" is a valid e-mail address. Though when you send a message to john, a different john will be addressed then when I send a message to john. According to specs when you send a message to a user name without domain, the domain the receiving smtp server uses will be used. As your smtp server generally uses the domain you're using yourself, your message to john will sent to j...@gmail.com and it's not unlikely that that's a valid address, though gmail might incorporate restrictions to the use of incomplete addresses.
