Comment (by Matthias Kestenholz):

 Thanks!

 I tend to agree that adding checks is bothersome, especially since I have
 been bitten by new checks in the past.  However, `mail_managers` and
 friends will choke later anyway and it would be better to catch typos
 earlier. Django's `EmailValidator` is battle tested and has been
 essentially unchanged since 2015 and building on this should (yeah I know,
 famous last words) be safe. `root@localhost` etc. are valid according to
 the `EmailValidator` so I really have a hard time imagining regressions.
 Also, such regressions would be detected very early, when starting up the
 application server, not in the middle of the night when everyone is
 sleeping.

 Because of these points I still think this new check would be a good idea.

 Of course it is your call. Thanks again :)
