The fact that it is a valid address is a feature, as some sites that demand email addresses (so they can spam you) verify the address for correctness. People are intentionally choosing an address that appears valid, because it is valid. So, sorry to the guy who bought bar.com, but that's what he signed up for.

Correctness and existence are two different things. I doubt many sites explicitly exclude @example.com or @*.test in their email validator.
