RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
Setting up IPA at home so I made my own top level domain of "wineries". The DNS capability of IPA is very happy and I created various A and CNAME records.
Next I went to add users. IPA refused with the following error:
"invalid 'email': invalid e-mail format: liam@wineries"
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.0.0-37
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install IPA and give it a top level domain to manage.
2. Add a user
3.
Actual results:
User is not created.
Expected results:
User should be create with an email address of "<user>@<domain>" regardless that the domain is a top level domain.
Additional info:
I expect someone made a wrong assumption when testing the validity of email addresses.
From personal experience organisations that operate their networks completely separate from the internet regularly use their organisation's identifer as the top level domain. People forget that the "internet" is not the only network.
This is a known limitation so far. There are upstream tickets to address that but they are deferred. The actual e-mail issue with adding users is also a know issue.
I think current latest upstream installation would not allow you to install IPA using a single level domain - this is a requirement.
Been through this problem myself.
I am inclined to close this BZ as WONTFIX.
Fair enough.
Makes sense to wait for a real commercial requirement to exist.
Sorry I did not think to check the upstream bugzilla first. I have closed this bug as WONTFIX like you suggested.
