When you sent this note, I immediately sent an email to

things up and retries them for a while, but I eventually got a
bounce. I suspect that any email address @example.com would have
sufficed, as there is by definition no A record and no mail receiver
for example.com.

BTW, example.com does have an A record (and web server listening
on port 80). But nothing listening on port 25, it seems.
(And it doesn't support IPv6 either :-)
