We only don't accept hotmail.com addresses.

You would be surprised at the number of people that think eg their email address starts with "www."

Maybe you could help by watching over his shoulder? Apart from hotmail, there are NO checks to see if the email address exists, only that the format is correct -
something@somewhere.com or similar. Commas or spaces would be a fail.

If he/she gets the syntax right, but the address is wrong, then they won't get the acceptance/activation mail, but the form will be accepted.

I hope that helps. :-)

Hotmail tends to put the acceptance/activation notice and PMs into spam folders and people never see them.
