License restrictions

Since this summer, we noticed an important batch of temporary email “dispostable.com” requiring licenses.

As we suspect it is a way to circumvent our (permissive) trial system, we now return 403 (forbidden) when user email belongs to this domain.
Sorry for legitimate users who can use this mail system, but we had no choice.
