Why do you bounce back to server-dev? Isn't this a mailet api issue,
first? IMHO similar issues should be discussed also with other
implementors (e.g: MailCatcher author) and other interested parties (A.
Oliver @ Buni). I thought we created a mailet api project mainly to
separate this decisions from Apache specific implementation.

I would like to know exactly what kind of invalid email address we think
should be represented and what scenario does this cover.

In the mean time, generally speaking, I don't think this is a good idea.
We produce an API based on a given specification, IMHO we should follow
that specification and make very clear when we give tools to break the
specification.

To mailet users this would be a major changes: previously any time I
reveived a MailAddress in a method I knew it was a syntatically valid
address. With the proposed change I won't know this anymore.
