What other plugins are you using?
I just tested on a clean WP install with @emptylousersstop.com in my ban list. When I tried to register as [email protected] I got the right error.

Make sure each entry is on it’s own line.
So you entered it differently than I did. I thought the * meant any ident but I guess maybe it’s built into the plugin? Or the method has changed in the past five years?
Thanks,, will go change every entry
No, nothing’s changed 🙂 As the direction that you quoted says “(i.e. @domain.com).”
So the banlist I would use based on what you gave is…
@emptylousersstop.com
.celebrities-duels.com
@anotherevildomain.com
@muahhahhah.com
And so on. Each on their own line. Now since you said @*.celebrities-duels.com I took that down to just .celebrities-duels.com instead, which works. Mind you so would celebrities-duels, but that would catch anything with that word in the email (so [email protected] would be caught too).
Thanks. I’ll edit the celeb* line as well. They spam daily with a new celeb name in there.
You may want to keep an eye on that. [email protected] would be caught by that too 😉
So .celebrities-duel.com would catch any “celebr” in an email? Whoa. I’d think you’d need the full word as celebr* isn’t banned.
I thought if I did *@domain.com the * refers only to username. Nut you’re saying to do @domain.com which catches ***domain***@.
Is there a way to ban any username (*) with a specific domain and avoid the *domain*@domain.com ban?
No no no!
If you put in celeb THAT will catch everything that has ‘celeb’ in the name.
You’re over thinking all this 😀
@emptylousersstop.com
.celebrities-duels.com
@anotherevildomain.com
@muahhahhah.com
First of all: No * needed.
Secondly, that stops ANYTHING with a .celebrities-duels.com domain name. This includes the following:
[email protected]
[email protected]
Does that make more sense?
