Defect #1762
closed
domain name "somenet.foo" is not suitable for example use
Added by Go MAEDA over 15 years ago.
Updated over 15 years ago.
Description
According to RFC2606, Reserved domain names such as "example.com", "example.net", "example.org" are preferable to "somenet.foo" which is used as Redmine administrator's default email address and Emission email address.

example.com, .net, and .org are not reserved domain names. RFC 2606 clearly states the following are reserved:
- .test
- .example
- .invalid
- .localhost
Regardless, this request is pedantic, a non-issue, and a waste of time imo.
Thanks for your comment to my opinion.

RFC 2606 chapter 3 saids that these domains are also reserved.

I don't think so. Popular product would better to be educational.
- Status changed from New to Closed
- Target version set to 0.8
- Resolution set to Fixed
Fixed in r1764. Default configuration now uses example.net.
