I made a royal pain in the ass of myself. I kept banging away on the
level 1 support until finally I found someone who was willing to report
it up a level. (Having the error message being bounced back was critical
but not sufficient.) Who quickly sent it on to level 3 support.

Level 3 was supposed to get back with me within 48 hours (so the level 2
geek claimed) but after a week I called again. Luckily their connecting
me directly to level 3 support resulted in only a long wait on hold
rather than the more usual dropped connection.

That person then poked around before rendering the opinion that it was
the unregistered domain. Since the emails started filtering through
without the domain being registered, I suspect he was just guessing.
