2.0 disallowed email addresses
#1
currently in the mybb 1.X series, disallowed email addresses settings are found in the following location: admin cp> banning> disallowed email addresses.

wouldn't it be more logical for future releases if it was located in a registration section somewhere since it basically stops a user from using whatever email addresses you add in that section during registration?

What about forums that allow the changing of an email address post-registration?

that's a good point.  I hadn't thought about that.

And every one better allow this. I'm changing dozens of sites to use my new custom domain, and I don't want to lose old accounts because they're tied to my old Gmail account.

That's a use case where changing email after the fact is very valid.

I doubt your custom domain name will be blocked by most forum admins.

I think a lot of people block problematic spam countries...

I was stating that forums better have the ability for me to change my email though, not specifically whether or not my domain would be an issue Smile.
