Issue Summary
On my Drupal 6.14 your modul works fine, except for one address: info@fahrschule-wunderlich.de
I don't know why, but your moduls says it is invalid. But it isn't!

Hi,
It is because checkdnsrr function ( http://es.php.net/checkdnsrr ) returns false on domain name verification, may be no MX records or similar. Dash in domain name is not the reason.

The module has this code:
if (!checkdnsrr($host, 'ANY')) {return t('Email host %host invalid, please retry.', array('%host' => "$host"));
}
From the checkdnsrr manual page linked above:
so if DNS returns an error for some reason e.g. DNS server playing up then we get a false negative...
I'm getting sensible responses for that domain name now, so I imagine it was a transient problem.
