TypeError during email validation

See original GitHub issue

When I am trying to validate a email, getting the below error both in python 2 and 3.

address.validate_address(‘mithun.manohar@xxxx.com’)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\flanker\utils.py", line 64, in wrapper
    return_value = f(*args, **kwargs)
  File "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\flanker\addresslib\address.py", line 312, in validate_address
    exchanger, mx_metrics = mail_exchanger_lookup(paddr.hostname, metrics=True)
  File "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\flanker\utils.py", line 64, in wrapper
    return_value = f(*args, **kwargs)

    mx_hosts = lookup_domain(domain)
  File "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\flanker\addresslib\validate.py", line 210, in lookup_domain
    if len(mx_hosts) == 0:
TypeError: object of type 'filter' has no len()
