If they don't then they need to take that issue up with their web host and/or change hosts. There are a few bloggers and the like that don't have a domain and it is unfortunate that these people can't submit, but to continue to offer free submissions steps have to be taken to reduce the volume of junk submissions we have to wade through each day. For a paid only directory there is generally no reason to need to block off email addresses.

If all submissions were done correctly we would clear many more per day, people would get their sites listed quicker and we would have more time to develop other things for World Site Index.
