Title:
  When sending mail fails because of invalid address, the mail is not
  discarded

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  If a user registers with an email address like "person@gmail" (invalid
  domain), the validation doesn't catch that (see bug #731028) but more
  importantly, the notice below is sent over and over again to the site
  admin.

  We need to make sure that when phpmailer fails for this reason, the
  email is forever dropped and so only one such notice will be sent to
  the site admin.
