🚀 Feature: more accurate email validation at sign in and sign up
🔖 Feature description
The sign in and sign up forms validate the email address:
When passing without the ending, i.e. ".com", the validation is missing and the form is sent to the server, which then validates:
The email input could already validate against the full accurate email format.
🎤 Pitch
As the email format will be validates after sending the form anyways and there exists a form input validation in the frontend, it could be extended with the full email format validation including ".com" endings.

@TorstenDittmann, do we want to update the client-side validation for this? According to MDN, something@something is valid:
A single properly-formed email address. This doesn't necessarily mean the email address exists, but it is at least formatted correctly. In simple terms, this means username@domain or [email protected].

IMO, formatting email client side can lead to errors. There are so many possible ways to write an email, that even this regex doesn't 100% work. There are other issues too.
Anyways I suggest having the same validations in the client and on the server?!
It looks like you are sign in for the first time. Follow this step

- accept the certificate and now try to sign up I hope this will help.

Yeah, let's allow these e-mails. Especially in Windows domain and co its quite common to have these type of e-mails.
