Even for .mil, the vast majority of email domains are fairly short with four or fewer labels. Most of the other ones tend to be individual servers that send automatic performance emails, and I think should be considered more of an edge case and less of our concern.

I don't think I've ever seen one more than four labels long that wasn't deliberately contrived. Anyone got data on that? I'd bet there are some in .gov or .mil, especially the latter, but otherwise I think the longest one I've seen is five, and that was not a host that receives mail. I'm sure we can all scrape our own mail logs for evidence either way. This might be a place where one (or more) of the big ESPs can help. They’re going to have billions of email addresses and know which ones have MXs. I’m happy to ask for that data if it would be of use. laura -- Having an Email Crisis?
